Usually air in the lines gives you a low "spongy" peddle. A low hard peddle would tell me it needs a brake shoe adjustment (in your case the rear only) and/or improper brake linkage/adjustment (push pin) and/or insuffient vaccum supply to the booster. Pull the vaccum supply hose that feeding the booster off at the engine while the engine is running, it should stall or damn near stall the engine if you have a good vaccum. A power brake system with out the power booster working properly, it would be very difficult to lock up the brakes even with the rest of the system in good working order.
