Hello Gang , All right I admit it; I 've been lurking around the Forum again late night ; saw a thread about seized steering wheels and a Bill Williamson said his 'rock and roll elbow's locked' method was sure to work - well my A wheel wasn't seized but my Datsun one sure was ( Gasp!!! can he SAY that word on this forum?! Yup I just did , ha ha!) I tried Bill's method and had the wheel loose in about 13 seconds flat - what makes this even more impressive is that I had already broken off a bolt in Datsuns pre-drilled puller hole ( It REALLY was stuck!) I had about given up on ever getting it off , so thank you Bill!
While I am at it, thanks to all who recently advised me on doing my Model A roof a few weeks back, it turned out very nice indeed,and my car is slowly starting to come alive. Kev.

Way to go Kev! Good to hear you got the roof done in time for winter.
It's pissing like a tall cow over a flat rock here............headed to a soggy swap meet.
Cheers!
