Thanks guys,
I actually enjoy the process; I’m used to higher end bikes, so sometimes it takes a bit of head scratching to figure out how it goes together.
Someone had put a wrong size bolt on and cross threaded it on the rear axle. I retapped it, but didn’t have the right nut. I live in a decent working class neighborhood and there was a couple trucks and trailers that looked like were scrappers and I saw an old bike in the pickup bed. I slipped the Campy peanut butter wrench in my back pocket and while walking the dog saw some people out and I was pointed to the house that owned the truck and luckily the guy was out in another beat up mini van and when I told him I was looking for a nut to fix a bike for a little girl, he reached into the back of the van and pulled out a small junk bike and let me have the nut off of it- saved me s trip to the bike shop.
