Truck Update! :metal:

Alright here's what i did this weekend on my 67 K10:
New Fuel Filters
New Battery
New Battery Cables
Bashed Starter W/ Ball Peen Hammer
A LOT of screwing around on trying to figure out why it wouldn't start

What i have now is a truck that runs and drives, but does not stop. I am going to get new drums, shoes and master cylinder at NAPA or Advance. My parking brake is shot, and is that just part of the drum? what is the deal with that? Also i need a rear brake line, where is the place to get that? I'm also going to replace the ginormous hubs and replace them with warn hubs or the like. Does anyone have any experience with these? Any other suggestions as to what to do or what else i should replace? Also, after 10 minutes of driving, my thermostat housing was 190 deg. F, i know that is not normal, there was also some coolant on the intake, should i replace all of the hoses and the thermostat? the housing i would replace at that time b/c it has some weird fittings on it and it is really nasty. I'm open to any other suggestions and comments.
