If it is the same design as my '57 Chevy, I borrow a steering wheel puller from AutoZone and it works fine. As I recall, the gadget has two side screws that screw into threaded holes on the hub of the steering wheel to center the tool and provide leverage, then a stout center screw can be tightened down on the spline shaft to pop the wheel. As stated above, I had to give the center screw a good rap the first time I removed the wheel.
