Angry Steering Wheel Removal

The saga continues...

As some of you may recall, I recently bought a '69 GMC that's in great shape. It's been sitting for a while, so everything needs to be "loosened up". The big issue was the 3 speed column shift, but now its working.

NOW, the issue is the 4-way flasher. While I was working on the column shift I said to myself, "Hmmm, I wonder if the blinkers work." I pushed in the little red button and they worked fine. The problem is that the button wouldn't come out. I pulled on it and the button broke off.

I have spare parts from another truck, but I can't get the #$%& steering wheel off. I tried the puller, I bathed it in WD-40, I tapped on the end of the puller when it was under tension, but nothing worked.

Help!

'94 F-150 from the "F word" company. I'll admit it...good truck. Sold what was left of it for $800 to a guy who came to pick it up at 11:00 PM with cash in hand. Hmm.
'79 Sierra Grande (Black) organ donor - perfect rebuildable 4-bolt 350 and a good TH350.
'76 Sierra Grande (Orange) - hate isn't too strong a word. Kid who bought it turned it into a hot rod.
'68 C-10 R.I.P. - Dad's old truck...too far gone to resurrect.
'59 C-50 - with hoist. Truck is gone, wife isn't. Nuff said.
