‘69 road runner brake parts

[OldBMXGuy]

After losing my wife 4 years ago I haven’t really touched my road runner. I’ve made sure to start it every other month or so, but it hasn’t been on the road in probably 5 or 6 years. I’ve recently moved from Northern Virginia to North Carolina and need to get it moving so I can get it down here. Currently it’s at my parents house but the front brakes are locked up. I feel like I need to replace the shoes, wheel cylinders and the rubber lines (they’re original). Is there a site I can go to that has all that? Maybe I’m not trying hard enough but I haven’t had much luck.. Thanks for any help.. Mike

Sorry sbout your wifes passing
I would think you could everthing you need at any parts store or rock auto.

Sometimes a few good whacks with a hammer along the face of the brake drum will unstick the brakes.

Going that far, replace the brakes with discs. Complete kits at Inline Tube. Kit has everything for swap out.

Sorry for your loss,I have been down that road. Give them a couple smacks and go from there. Hoses on ebay or RockAuto. Did you check your MC for fluid?

FIRST, Sorry for your loss. As far as the brakes they may need nothing as there is probably surface rust on the drums. Once freed take the drum off and take a look as they maybe just fine, scuff the rust off the drums and then they just need to be used...

Bang the drums until they come off. Then you need to crack the bleeder screws to see if any fluid comes out. Chances are you have rust in the cylinders. They can be honed if not pitted and then cleaned. The pistons need to move freely. Or get new cylinders, and reinstall. Flex lines should probably be replaced while you are there so at least buy them. Beware the hard line to flex line flare nut can twist off if they are rusted.
