I had my GTO out last year to a cruise night. Steering acted a bit funny but I didn't think anything of it...... I got home and backed it into the garage. I didn't get it parked just right over my scissors lift and moved it out and backed it back in. Then the steering wheel really felt funny. I could turn it either way and it just keep on turning. I popped the hood and found out why. The rag joint's rubber ring broke. Thank God I wasn't out on the road.

So the moral of that is check your rag joint. Mine was the original and lasted 49 years. It could have been a lot worse.
