Pretty rare to ever wear out a set of shoes on one of them, more likely either oil saturated from a bad axle seal or a leaking wheel cylinder has soaked the linings in brake fluid.

Some of these had a remote mount vacuum booster mounted under the drivers seat, some were under the hood either way a pressure test will give you a good idea of there condition.
800 to 1200 PSI is acceptable.
One more thing, if someone has messed with it and the idle speed is too high then there is nothing that will ever stop it with the torque it has coming off the planetary gears.
