Seized or partially seized? Tear it down and post some pictures.

I would say you seized the ring.

Could be the crank too. When you tear it down-- you'll be able to feel if the crank bearings are binding. The good news is that it isn't too expensive to fix. When my 65 needs a new crank, I'm going to get it balanced before I drop it in. --L*64
