Thats the guy next doors car. I've been letting him work on it in my barn. Had to pull it out to get the hoist out. It's a pretty sweet old car.

Haven't you heard of "black lights"?

I am thinking of tearing down my B112 but first I need to pull the steering wheel. It looks as if there is no set screw in the wheel but it is stuck tight. Guess I need to pop off the cap and start soaking the shaft with penetrant.

I had to cut the steering wheel off this one. I've got a couple extra, but it was stuck big time and I broke a allen wrench off in the set screw then a couple drill bits before I said screw it and got the cut off wheel out.

If there is a set screw in there I will likely drill it out rather than try to force the issue with an Allen wrench. Once you break off a tool you limit your options.
