I replaced the rotors, calipers, pads, and master cylinder even the parking brake shoes. I had the brakes bleed. The brake pedal still goes to the floor. I had good brakes before I replaced anything. I smelled burning brakes in the back of the car. So I was just going to replace everything. Now no brake pedal.

So, it sounds like you have air stuck in the ABS unit which is common, and you need to have a scanner open the valve while you bleed the brakes. Please check these two guides out to help us fix the problem.
