Non-Returning brake pedal
IMO, "concurs" doesn't really mean much for a daily driven Mustang when it involves the single vs. dual master cylinder.
Lets put it this way, on cars my kids drive, conversion of the then working single m/c to dual was a priority. As a matter of fact, the single m/c on my 55 Lincoln was one of the first parts I changed out too. The thought of smacking the back of another car due to a blown rear wheel cylinder doesn't impress me much...
For a driver, originality for this particular issue means nothing to me. It is too cheap and easy to upgrade to a much safer dual m/c.
We simply used a 67 m/c with a 66 pushrod, plumbed the front and rear lines respectively. Worked great.
A 67 drum m/c will work great with your 4 wheel drums.
Back to the point, imo the problem is likely due to a broken m/c....

To all that responded to my brake questions,,THANK YOU VERY MUCH. The advice is well taken and I plan to start the conversion next week As the only running car in my garage this little stang can only rest a couple of days in a row then it must be freeway bound. For convenience and maintance the distributor was changed to "pointless" some time in the past so this will be one more up-grade for safetys sake.

The push rods are going to be hard to yank out of the m/c's, but a vice and some locking pliers will get the job done.
