As Dave finally pointed out to me on my '69 on the way home from 
Idaho 4 years ago. I'd rebuilt many speedos from the later years 
where there is a hole for the trip odo reset shaft, but I wasn't 
paying attention when I did the '69 gauge and didn't realize that 
only one way worked out right.

That was annoying on the trip, because we couldn't be sure how to 
read the speedometer, but I got it fixed within a week of getting 
home.
