Brakes problem
1976 Chevy Truck V8 Two Wheel Drive Manual

Was having brake problems, replaced both front calipers and pads, turned both rotors.
replaced both rear wheel-cylinders and shoes. Cleaned and inspected all hardware - good.
Installed all new components. Topped off master-cylinder. Bled system starting at lft. front, rt. front, lft. rear, then rt. rear. Not getting any fluid to lft. front caliper. Disconnected brake line from left caliper and applied brake pedal, no fluid comes out. The other 3 work fine. Please advise. Thank you for your time.
Attempted to disconnect the solid line from the valve to the caliper and they are stripped.
