mutant 240 brake issues 200 1986

All I wanted to do is change one set of front hub bearings...
So after i changed my front right side hub bearings,,,,i had a leaky caliper...so i replaced it...bled it with a pneumatic brake bleeder...well that didn't work..so I bought a new master cylinder,,,,on the off chance i had scored the seals on the m/c..well that didn't work... I bled the M/C on the car....I put caliper nipples on the m/c and pumped till my observer said there were no more bubbles..
Hitched it up and the brake pedal went to the floor..
I don't see any bulging or leaking soft lines...I tried bleeding according to ritual...por nada...I don't see any leaks, bulges,puddles. or other obvious leaks...
So where's the air coming from...I haven't a clue.

all comments, an ideas greatly appreciated
