I've got the lock collar on the column - I highly recommend it to everyone. It also lowers the insurance rate as an anti theft device.
 
I have a club for my current car, but then I realized how easy those are to get around. They just cut the steering wheel and slide the club right off.....

Where can I get one of those steering wheel metal cover things? I'm going to be getting another G Body within the next couple of years. I need a silver cutlass again 🙂
 
My alarm is a great dane a black lab and a smith and wesson magnum 500 hunter.I had a crack head trying to use a coat hanger to open my truck door at my work one night he didn't like the brick i used on him.I use one of these on every car i own http://www.12voltguy.com/theftswitch.htm also if your efi a kill switch for the fuel pump is easy and i always use a oem switch on the dash of something i don't have.You would never think cruise control switch could be something else huh.Your best bet is good insurance if they want your car bad enough a repole tow truck can take you car under 30 sec.
 
yeah someone stole the 85 cutlass i have from the previous owner, luckily he recovered it and slod it to me it still has the smashed steering column, and i can't turn the high beams on
 
I'm not convinced the thieves don't wander amongst us right here on GBF...the slimebag who stole my GP in Houston just for the green steering wheel....he's not a "G-Body Enthusiast"????

It's not unheard of. Didn't someone have their Monte stolen because the guy who stole it was jealous of it? And someone else had theirs stolen and the doors taken off it?

I read in the paper or somewhere about someone who had his Monte taken by a neighbor who stole it for parts.

Bottom line: people suck, Man.
 
Well I just bought another G body. I'll be hanging around here A LOT more. Do you guys know where i can buy one of those steering column collars? I remember seeing them on eBay but now I can't seem to find them

What are they called, or what should I search for?

Thanks
 
Look them up on the search here. I remember someone posted up a nice site with a bunch of different kinds including the one you can keep on the car all the time. If/when I get one, I'll get that kind^
 
I got my column lock through JCwhitney.com They sell them for all GM vehicles from 1982-1985 i think those are the 4 years that GM decided to cut corners and use plastic steering columns instead of steel. I believe that Jeep also had these plastic columns and this will also fit the GM vehicles. It is well worth the money and a little peace of mind, that along with a couple of other theft deterrent devices.
