I took The Wonder Falcon in to have the oil changed and I also mentioned a tic tick tick sound and my squeaky brakes.
The tick tick tick sound was from a leaking "doughnut" gasket where the exhaust pipe joins the manifold.
The brakes were squeaking because the front shoes were worn down almost to the rivets. I had new brake shoes installed, the front drums turned, the front wheel bearings packed. and the brake lines flushed. These are the new brake shoes:

Yay! Now the car should stop more quickly. I will pick the car up this evening.
