'56 Thunderbird Disc Conversion

I'm working o a '56 that the previous owner has converted to disc front brakes. Anyone recognize the setup as to what company supplied this or where I can find more information? Thanks!

Re: '56 Thunderbird Disc Conversion

The calipers appear to be ford granada/maverick/monarch, mustang, etc. This is the most common setup used for ford disc brake converstion. As for the discs, they most likely came from the same donor (granada,etc). The spindles could also be granada, mustang, maverick etc.
