So there are a set of old antique spoke Model T wheels for sale on FB marketplace. I am buying an old hay trailer for parades and such. No real work. Is there anyway to find a hub/that would bolt up to a 5 bolt hub to single wheel bolt?

Or is this to much of a hassle and cost prohibitive? (probably so)
 
How much weight do you plan on?
What shape are the T wheels in?
 
Can you make up a spindle like a knock off wheel from a MGB/Triumph/Jag?
Plate bolted to the existing hub with a welded on pipe section threaded that fits the T wheel opening.
