Thanks to all of you for the very valuable information.
I had found the left front hose was plugged completely and the right rear hose was cracking so I replaced all of the hoses (which I bought from Kanter) and then was getting fluid to all four wheels during the bleeding process, which is a bear of a job to do by one person, even with the so called vacuum pump bleeder. As you know it is not hard physical work, it's just more difficult to get all of the air out of the lines when there is no one at the drivers seat.
I will follow all of the advice as suggested here and let you know what will hopefully be good results. One thing is for sure I should know how all of the various system works on a 56 Pat by the time I'm through, AND THAT IS A GOOD THING!
