My car has been sitting for a while, when I lift the front right wheel, it won't turn by hand. What steps would you take? Is this difficult to fix? My e-mail is dmacod2@yahoo.com Or, please leave help here, either way, I need to get this taken care of and wouldn't drive it to the shop this way.

Thank you!

sounds to me like the brake shoe has rusted to the drum

back off the adjustment of the shoes, pull the drum off the car and clean up the rust. i think that will get you rollin'
