Brake issues!

I'm trying my hardest to keep this old girl on the road.. lost a front brake line a few weeks ago, got a set of nicop lines. Replaced the leaky ones, yay, no more leak. Bled the system 3 times today, while off the pedal is pretty firm, start the truck up, no pedal at all, am I looking at a hydroboost issue? Master cylinder? I'm generally pretty patient but I'm so frustrated with this thing.

Got a pneumatic bleeder, seems I should have gotten a pressure bleeder instead. It just pulls and pulls on the right rear. Held it on the bleeder for a solid 4-5 minutes and after the first little trickle nothing, not a drop of brake fluid. I got some fluid from the fronts. Not losing any fluid anywhere and can't seem to find any leaks. Getting close to giving up on it.
