Hi Josh ,

a pretty late reply for ur post ... here is my thought .

1) copy system,undo,your_tablespace from cold backup to new destination
2) make "create controlfile " script with new DB name and only the tablespaces 
you need (with proper path) - Any backup of ur controlfile to trace will make 
this job easier . do not forget " SET DATABASE " and " RESETLOGS" option.
3) copy ur archive log files too
4) now create controlfile in "startup nomount" mode
5) recover database using backup controlfile until cancel
6) open resetlogs
7) hope this works and I remember (hardly though) doing this long time back

Hope this works..
