    Here's a Nova drum to disc conversion using old parts.
    Cutting the old drum spindle boss off allows a disc setup to bolt on.

    You could do something similar???

    You can use 75-80 Granada/Monarch/Versailles brakes on your 56. Mostly a bolt in. Uses the G/M/V spindles and brake assemblies. The Granada and Monarch spindles need some slight mods in the lower ball joint hole, I understand the Versailles do not need it.
