I personally use and would suggest A23's, they come in both an off center version for the rear and polished which would look great on a vintage bike.

The off center makes for a better rear wheel build as it helps balance drive side to non drive side tensions. The fact that the rim is wider than a lot of common options like Mavic makes for not only a little better ride but makes the rim a little happier if running wider tires.

For hubs I would let your budget be your guide, there are a ton of great options out there but some can get very spendy. I personally really love White Industries hubs or if you want to spend a little less, DT 350's.
