Take a hammer about 4 pounds or so and tap the drum all the way around and
see if you can make it relieve the pressure.  Don't get too rough.  There
may be grooves in the shoes corresponding with the drum which keeps it from
coming off.  Your right wheel and driveshaft spin because the differential
allows that unless you had a posi. -- Bill --

Ok boys and girls, the left rear wheel is still locked. The e-break is  off.

Any hints or tips on this? The R-rear wheel spins and the drive  shaft
spins. 
Thanks 
One more time. Drove car into garage parked it. Wasn't wet when parked.  
Loosened bleeder took off break line, little dribble. Took off wheel, took
out  
Phillips screw. Drum moves a bit but won't come off feels like brakes are  
pushing against drum. Adjuster won't budge with 1/4 inch wrench. Any Ideas?
Thanks 
again.
