Default new MB for Presario 5000?

I'm thinking of getting an old Presario 5000 (5WV254) and installing a
new motherboard, CPU and RAM - keeping the drives, the PSU etc. and
installing '98

Is this doable? I'd be happy to have something running at around 2GHz,
and drive transfer speed isn't that important. Can anybody suggest an
MB/CPU combination that would work? Are there any pitfalls to doing this?
Thanks.
