Wheel build (Old Hub)

I have this gimpeme (sp) hub.

And i want to build a wheel for my road bike. The thing is the cheapest rim i found was 45eu, and the build + spokes is 45 eu. Thats almost 100eu for a really cheap wheel.

And i lost the cone nuts and bearings for the hub too, i had them all in one bag, and then lost the bag. I have one bearing in my pocket, but i don't think the lbs can find me another set of cone nuts.

I could find a used wheel with a ok rim, but then thats 45 eu for a HORRIBLE wheel...

Is it time to put a wheel together then pay for truing and tensioning?
