Take the spare rim and get a tire on it. Then swap that for a dead rear wheel and to the next one. Take the drums off carefully, they are going to cost an amazing amount of money. You can get away with leaving them off if you replace them with a stack of washers that make up the thickness so you can bolt the rims back on. A sign on the dash saying "no brakes. Keep the wheels chocked at all times" would be a good idea if go that route.
After you get it rolling, you have two options. The one I strongly suggest you take is to sell the car, take cash and feel glad that you passed the car onto somebody. The other option requires you to be prepared to spend a good deal of money. The positive side to that second option is that if you want to get your hands dirty, you sure will. Also as the others have said be exceedingly careful with how you bring it back to life. Don't even think of turning that engine until you've pulled the rocker cover and the plugs. Make sure the cam is not rusty, make sure everything in the top side of the engine gets lubricated.
