[BaadAssGremlins] More barke help!

["Dan M." <vegadan@xxxxxxxxx>]

I replaced the brake pads/shoes, rear wheel cylinders and the 
driver's side brake line from the block to the wheel on my 77 
hornet, but now I can't bleed the brakes.  I first bled the 
passenger rear brake ok, but when I tried to bleed the driver side 
rear brake, nothing.  I disconnected the driver side rear brake line 
from the block on the axle to see if the there was a blockage, and 
when I had someone pump the brake, fluid barely dribbled out.  And 
now, I can't even get the passenger side to bleed.  Furthermore, the 
brake pedal is pretty stiff.  Is it the master cylinder?  I should 
point out that when I removed the master cylinder cover, the rear 
reservoir was practically empty.  Any help would really be 
appreciated since I'm really frustrated at this point.  If it is the 
master cylinder, where can I find a replacement?  And is it hard to 
replace?

One other thing that I noticed is that the master cylinder sits at 
about a 10-20 dgree angle.  Is this normal?  It looks like it should 
be that way so that it can clear the shock tower, but it looks a 
little strange.

Thanks,
Dan
