English/Italian Hub Threading Question

Long story short, guy I bought an '80 Raleigh Competition GS screwed up the rear wheel, replaced the campy gran sport hub and rear rim with cheapies. Want to restore the bike to somewhat original condition and finally found the correctly spaced rear hub and correct rim. The only thing is, when I took the new hub in to get respoked to a new rim, the bike mechanic at my LBS said that he couldn't transfer the original English threaded freewheel because it isn't compatible with the Italian threaded hub. Am I screwed?
