Need a good 1960's drop center hoop (rim only)

[bikemonkey]

I need a good 26" flat top rim (the thread title is incorrect) for a mid-60's middleweight (not Schwinn size). By good I mean the following:

No dents (removed or otherwise) or impact issues. Lay it on a large piece of plate glass - if it rocks I can't use it.

36 hole, standard 80 ga spoke nipple drilling (not heavy duty).

If rusty, the chrome needs to be cleanable with no plating issues, bad welds, etc.

Thank you for your consideration.

A picture of the rim type/profile you desire would be helpful.

I have a couple that were used on a sears spaceliner that used middleweight tires. What width measurement do you need? Mine have good chrome.

Will measure this morning and get back with you - thanks!

That would be a flat top and not a drop center.

The rim is 35mm at widest point outside measurement. Please note it is a flat top and not drop center as I stated earlier. Sorry for the confusion.
