Probably it was in my first visit to IAS in 1968-69 that he posted a note from a publisher who declined to publish his lectures on "Chevrolet" groups. | |

Eventually this was done by AMS after Steinberg's death. What I don't know is how the ownership changed then. | |

A quick Google turned up a version on Peter Trapa's home page: Lectures on Chevalley groups. It seems also to be on Semantic Scholar, although I'm never sure how reliable those links are; and it's finally been published (I've never been clear why it wasn't in the collected works). | |
