 Sounds to me like your calipers need to be rebuilt.  You can take a C-clamp and a block of wood across the piston and see if you can get it to move.  It is a good idea to open the bleeder first.  If it moves relatively easily, then you are probably OK.  If it takes much force to move, then a rebuild is in order.  When was the last time the calipers were done?  If it was '73, then they probably need it anyway.

Good Luck
