I WOULD say that you have a bad rubber line/hose at the wheel; but you say BOTH are hard to turn?

Is the '67 MC a disc brake MC? A disc brake MC won't have the residual pressure valve behind the line seat.
Make sure the rear piston in the MC is fully returning when the pedal is released. If pushrod adjustment is preventing the piston from fully returning it will trap pressure in the system when the pedal is released.

^^^This makes sense..you should be able to take the cover off the MC, then have some watch while you depress the brake pedal hard. Then release quickly and you should see backflow in the fluid if the hole is uncovered. DON'T forget to throw a fender cover on.

If you probe into the master cylinder port with a small drill bit and feel something springy, that would be a RPV, which would need to be removed.
Power brakes? Next time it locks up, unbolt the master from the booster and see if that relieves the pressure. If so, the pushrod needs to be adjusted shorter, like John was hinting at.
If you ever find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck.

Easiest way to remove the seat is to thread a screw into the hole and pry it out with a claw hammer. Careful not to damage the sealing surface when reinstalling.
