Wierd - brakes lock up on 1990!

[Bassace]

I have a 1990 Continental which is having a strange problem with the brakes. They work fine for a few days, and then actually lock up so badly the car is immobilised, sometimes in a dangerous place, and the car can't be moved.

This subsides after the car is towed and sits overnight. So far it has a new master cylinder and idle air valve.

If this can't be fixed it's too dangerous to drive, and I'll have to dispose of the car. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. The shop I've been using doesn't seem to have a clue.

Thanks!
