Keith, can you explain what "peening" means to us all?

Thanks

	After I wrote you, another T3'r wrote something about "peening" the gear back
onto the shaft. If they get this message, maybe they could explain to both of
us how this is done.......But yes, it's out of the car. I was getting
frustrated because the speedo was working, but not the odo. I took it out of
the car, took the back off and was playing with the gears. At first I noticed
that the shaft would slide back and forth, so I put a little piece of metal on
the end of the shaft. When that didn't work, and I noticed that the shaft was
still in place, I started spinning the gears again. Then I noticed that the
gear on the end seemed to spin all the other gears.......And then I noticed
that the shaft was spinning independently of the gear. I couldn't see how to
dissemble it any further without breaking a weld. And that's where I am now. I
would appreciate it if anyone else has any input on this!!!!!!!
	Also,any idea the address where I can some sort of contribution (a few $) to
this T3 org?
	Also, considering selling my '68 Squareback.The 2 kids and 2 '73 Squarebacks
take up a good deal of my time, and I would like to see it go into good hands.
That, however, depends on two friends of mine who MIGHT do me the honors
