Drum to OEM disc brakes

I am looking at converting my 1971 Cutlass from drum brake to disc but I want to use original factory parts not aftermarket conversion kits, what year disc brakes/spindle assembly would be correct, and what vehicles are the same?

I was thinking more along the line of finding something out of a salvage yard, so I guess i need to look at probably 69-72 A-body

Coppertop:
Where are you located? I have a '71 front disc set up but shipping could be really expensive.
