Well, Denis there is a third:  Mentioned in my first post; there may be too 
much play between the pedal push rod and the plunger on the MC.  Adjust 
according to specs.

There are only the two things possible, I think. Adjust the brakes and then 
bleed. Make sure that you keep fluid in the reservoir and then bleed again, oh 
yeah, bleed again.
 
I am not sure your rear wheels will “lock up”.

67s don't have brake pads.  They are drum brakes.  And see my post on adjusting 
the shoes.

Sorry if this seems obvious but you don't mention if you adjusted the brake 
pads?

I'm trying to fix the brake system on a 67 deluxe buse. 
Have changed out the mastercyclinder, all four  wheel cycliners on the 
front,new drums on front.
I've ran 64oz of brake fluid thru all the system(bleeding all wheel cycliners 
front and back) no more air, even bled mastercyclinder, all hoses look new.
the brake pedal goes almost to the floor before the front brakes will lock up. 
the rear brakes want lockup. they will if you pull the e brake. i'm at a loss 
to figure this out .
can any body offer any sugestions on what to try next??????
 
 

If it can happen it will hapen to me????

In the admirals club at LAX there is a large photograph about 4 by 6 on the 
wall.  It is a photo of the desert southwest, possibly Mexico, with a 70s bus 
in it driving on a dirt road.  Lime green and yellow.
