The gummy mechanism that Paul talked about is the cam. This is the part that slides back and forth in the cam shaft. It pushes on the rollers on the shoes.
I worked on a car where the cam was rusted solid in the camshaft and nothing would loosen it. I had to buy new parts.
The cam shaft could also be gummy in the backing plate where it rotates.

Forget the brakes, they really don't work.
The clutch always sticks, and starts with a jerk.
My car grows red hair, and flies through the air.
Driving's a blast, a blast from the past.
