Brake pedal sticking

I still have manual brakes on my 67 but I do have discs up front, my question is when I brake under any condition my pedal will randomly stick and the pedal will not release.

Any ideas of what this could be?

do the brakes stick as well, or is it just the pedel?

if it is just the pedel then it may be that the rod coulld be getting stuck on the way out, or could just be the pedel swing point.

get your head in there and check it out.

Actually the brakes stick along with the pedal.

You still need to check the pedal, the casue of the problem is in that area.

The brakes will stick with the pedal because the pedal is still pressed in applying pressure to the brakes.

Now if the brakes stuck but the pedal was out, then you would have to look elsewhere.
