1963 Olds Fiesta brakes

Hey everyone I recently acquired a clean rust free 63 fiesta wagon out of a yard in Wyoming. It was missing the passenger side front drum off the spindle. As im new to the Oldsmobile world are there in other large GM cars a guy can pull one off of or on a side note are there any offerings for a disc brake set up for these cars available? Any help would be greatly appreciated everyone! Thank you!

Believe the direct interchange on the hub and drum will be limited to 62 and 63 full size Oldsmobiles 88 and 98. Not likely to cross over to other GM brands.

I appreciate it a ton guys. Another quick question. Unfortunately my car is missing the master cylinder and brake booster. I looked around a bit on the web and didn't find much in the way of boosters. With a disc brake set up from Scarebird would a guy want to try and find one like the one that came on the car new or could another be swapped to possibly perform equally as good??
