Bikes: Giant Excursion, Raleigh Sports, Raleigh R.S.W. Compact, Motobecane? and about 20 more! OMG

The nipples are pretty much a stock size (or at least close enough they will work) FWIW it would be money well spent to re-lace the wheels with modern ss spokes and nipples if the old ones are really bad, new Sun CR-18 rims would be a good choice too.
