Default '67 Firebird Disc Brake conversion using OEM parts.

Quick question. . .13 years after I bought it my '67 Firebird (with the 400 engine and a TH400 if it matters) and I are finally in the same state and I'm trying to get it back on the road to enjoy for a year or so before I tear it all the way down for a major build.

Since there is a major rebuild planned for the future is there a way to ditch the drum brakes (at least the front) using parts from another vehicle that I could aquire at a pick & pull to keep the cost of just getting this thing safe and road-worthy for now.

Sorry if this is a silly question or if it's already been answered before, but I haven't been on the forum for a while and I would rather not buck up a bunch of money for a "cheap" aftermarket disc brake conversion or replace all the drum parts if I don't have to.

Thanks!
