brake problems please help

okay, my car has been down for awhile for a clutch job and just before i started taking her apart the brakes basically dissapeared. there is almost no pedal feel and my grandfather and i tried bleeding it and mad air bubbles came out but no matter how many times we did it it didnt get any better. whats up with that. is it a master cylinder problem or is it the booster or what. anyone got any hints or suggestions. any help is much appreciated as i would like to see my car on the road again

if theres no leak in the system what you can do with the master cylinder if you cant get the bottom bolt out is cut the two wires and then use the wire connectors that twist together.
