South418, this link will offer just about anything you could ever want to keep original or upgrade. Looks like you already have the drum to disk conversion. Next is going from standard to power brakes. You'll find everything you need for that too from the folks at dearbornclassics. I have a '66 Galaxie and hope to one day convert to power disc brakes as well. It sure takes a lot to stop that heavy car.
