Default No Brake pressure

Ok, here is the deal. My dad has a 77 corvette the brakes one day quit working. There is no pedal at all. I worked on it with my dad and we tried bleeding the brakes starting the the front passenger side and ending it with the front driver side. We later changed out the master cylinder and we thought that would fix the problem. My Dad recently passed away and I really want to fix his car, but I am stumped as to what it could be. Any help would be great thanks.
