No joke, i had the EXACT same problem. There is a very easy fix... unfortunately it costs 120 bucks from autozone. Replace the calipers. I tried everything I could think of. If their seized, replace em both. If they're that old, I'd replace the brake line too.

3/4 inch drive breaker bar. If that doesn't do it add a six foot piece of pipe on it. There is no promise whatsoever you won't snap the bolt heads off this way.
Should you have an oxy-acetylene torch on hand, they're usefull for popping loose stuck bolts.
