If I read your post correctly you have already replaced all brake shoes, all wheel cylinders, and all brake lines (which I assume means the flexible hoses at each wheel). The only other things I can think of are the rigid brake lines (maybe they are significantly blocked with crud and scale internally), a bad Master Cylinder (leaky seal or piston cup) which can be rebuilt by White Post Restorations in White Post VA, or trapped air in the system requiring major bleeding. Some Techs swear by use of a Reverse Bleeder when standard bleeding methods are ineffective.
