Need a brake caliper

Anyone have a rear drivers-side brake caliper for an early 86 NA they want to get rid of? Every time I use my e-brake my rear left caliper locks up and won't disengage. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It's called "rust". Remove the caliper and clean all the sliding surfaces with steel wool. Mine did the same, it worked like a charm.

also make sure your ebrake cable moves freely.
