hello guys i got a 69 cadillac deville and i turned the key and the ignition went snap now the key is all lose does any one know where i cAn get a special tool to take of the steering wheel and colum thanks

getting the steering wheel itself off is pretty simple all you need is like a bolt puller. I used this set http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/Displayitem.taf?itemnumber=37714
getting the wheel back on was a pain, because i have the telescoping steering and attempts to push stuff down to get the collar back on let me pulling the center shaft. There is probably some very easy way that I didn't think of.

Removing the wheel is easy enough, borrow a puller from autozone. You'll have to leave a small deposit, but you get that back when you return the tool. Putting the wheel back on usually requires another tool to compress a spring in the column, but if it's a telescoping wheel it can be a major pain in the ass. I know from experiance. Maybe there's some special tool or something. I had to compress mine by hand, and it was hard.

There is a tool called a lock plate depresser that is pretty much mandatory unless you want to be majorly frustrated.
