Wow Alex! Thanks! I knew I'd be able to find all the info I'll need on the site, but I never expected you to find them all for me!

Yeah, as I look at the bike more, some of the rust is pretty deep. Probably going to have to buy new wheels and a new cassette. If I can't find a 5 speed cassette (the little bit of looking I've done hasn't turned anything up), will I have to buy a new rear derailleur?
