front brake conversion

Hello brothers would anyone have a idea what type of disc breaks these would be off of.I have a 68 galaxie 500 and some one has converted the front drums to disc.the outer pad has two pins that go through it and have retaining clips on the outer back of the caliper and the inner pad is held with a big clip that the caliper pins  go through to the caliper brakets thanks for any help.I will try to get some pictures if I can figure out how to put them on the site.

are you sure they are not original? I've had two '68 fords with original disc on the front...

You have to click on quick reply then advanced editor at the bottom of the page to post pictures (I think)
