Spongey Brakes

Still have a spongey brake problem. My brakes seem to be a little low and somwhat spongey. I put new cylinders on the rear and bled them several times, Then i thought the master cylinder might be defective so i changed it, Bled it and the system again. I checked for leaks and found none, and i'm not loosing fluid. Also checked for adjustment. I didn't change the Booster because i thought a bad booster gives you a hard pedal. I have another 66 and it stops perfect with the brakes on the top and no spongey feel at all so i know my convertable is not right. Any suggestions?
Thanks Bob
