My '84SE is suddinly pulling to the left. The faster I go the more it pulls. That is at idle the pull is not noticable. Out of alignment or brake draging? If Brake drag would it be left front or ?

TIA

Don't forget to check your tire pressure. If one side is lower than the other it will tend to pull to that side. This is caused by the tire with low pressure having more rolling resistance. The same applies to brake sticking. The side that sticks will tend to steer the car in that direction.

mmmmmmmmm sounds more like a broken belt in the tire to me. Switch the two front tires and see if it pulls the other way. If it does, it the tire.
