I have a 67 210 with a pull to the right on the brakes. sometimes there, sometimes not. If you have to put on the brakes hard, sometimes it can be extremely hard to fight the wheel. This car apparently had this problem about 10 years ago too. What I did, rebuild the wheels cylinders, replaced the rubber lines, adjusted the shoes. (it has drums all the way around) What I did not do is rebuild the master cylinder and replace the rear flex line. It looks like the MC might have leaked at one point, not sure if it is now. Could there possibly be something wrong with the MC? or could it be a clog in the hard line of the right side? or something else? Fluid seems to flow out of the wheel cyls the same when the brakes were bled.

Thanks,
