factory looking rear discs...

I picked up a rear disc setup from a 79' Caddy deville the other day at the u-pull-it yard for $35. Got both backing plates, rotors, calipers & e-brake cables along with the proportioning valve. I had the axles on turned down so the caddy rotors would go on, cost= $40 for both axles... The caddy rear has the small bolt pattern backingplate flange with the staggered bolt holes and smaller center hole whereas the truck backing plate bolts are wider spaced and has a big hole for the axle tube. I took the truck backing plate and cut the center out cut the center from the disc backing plate. I then welded the truck center into the disc center & after a little cleaning up, it bolted on... It looks like I will need to use 2 drivers side caddy e brake cables to make it work.
