Steering Wheel turns but the wheels don't

My Steering wheel turns really easy and as fast as you want it to but my wheels do not turn at all. It makes a weird clicking sound at the end of the steering wheel column. Anyone have any idea? or should I just buy a new car I just spent over a thousand dollars on it and it ran three times and now this. My car is a 2.8l 83 Firebird

Also I took it up to a shop and said fix everything wrong with it since I got it back they didn't tighten the speedometer cable and all my transmission fluid came out. They put a switch in my steering wheel column now it went out anyone know if this could because of them?

Re: Steering Wheel turns but the wheels don't

This is the wrong section. It should be in steering and susupension for that part. As far as the fluid coming out, yes it's their fault. But should you take it back and have them fix it? I wouldn't. The steering issue sounds like a proble with the steering column itself. I'd go to the junk yard and buy a used one or get one off of this website.
