Re: [Classic Mustang] New member

I think we all agree, some pb blast.....some minor rubber mallet work...Maybe heat (last resort) you may want to ead in the back through the backing plate and try to free up the adjuster or chop off the spring pins that hold the shoes on at least get it moving....rust stop...I ahve used mar-hyde, naval jelly, osphoe (no idea on spelling, to lazy to google it), and POR-15 I liked them all and have had good luck with all....

Hello all,
I've joined this group because I just bought a 1967 coupe and would
like to benefit from others' experience with Mustang restoration.
Reading the posts, there seems to be a lot of it here! My Mustang's
previous owner took it off the road 20 years ago with intent to restore
it. He removed most of the front end, the engine and trans, bought lots
of Ford NOS parts, and that's as far as it went. Real nice guy, though.
I plan to work on the rust first (there's a lot), then install an
updated drivetrain (the originals are long gone).
Here are my first questions: Can anyone recommend a rust inhibitor
coating? Also, 2 wheels have rigor mortis, I suspect rusted, seized
brakes (4 wheel drums). Anyone have a solution for breaking them loose?
Thanks very much.
