This Lacerne needs a brake! See what I did there?
Since the front end is locked up and making loud clanking noises after you changed the brakes, it might be a stuck brake caliper or a jammed brake pad, especially if something wasn't reassembled properly. The best thing is to take the front brakes apart and double-check your work.
Given how bad it sounds and the wheels locking up, I'd recommend having it towed to a mechanic to diagnose and fix the issue. Hope you get it sorted out quickly!
Good luck!
