1960 Dodge Dart Front Brake Issues

Locks up turning by hand, or when rolling?
Like mentioned a 4 inch grinder may help solve that if it ends up you can't find any other reason.
The idea would be to taper the ends of the brake shoe for the first 1/2 inch or so.
1/8 or so deep on the taper at the shoe edges ( leading edge) top of the front shoe and bottom of the rear shoe.

"i.e getting trapped in the wheel cylinder and not releasing. (Old rubber brake lines would do this when they would get old and shrink up, constriction would not let the fluid go back when releasing the brake pedal)"

This is an easy one to eliminate, even though you have new hoses.
While it's locked loosen the bleader screw and it will release if thats what is causing it.
Wouldn't be the first time a new hose was mismanufactured.
