Cant remember whether it's pads or shoes on that car .If shoes you wiil have to pull drums and check wheel cyls . and shoes . A leaking wheel cyl , can cause shoes to stick . If pads ,may need clean out .On both systems it may be brake cable or linkage sticking .Case of getting it jacked up and checked out .
