: rear disk update

So here is my current plan:
brackets $98 e-bay
'80-'81 rear T/A rotors $ 130 autozone
loaded '81-'88 camaro front calipers $100 autozone (and live without e-brake, auto trans)
or maybe even
loaded '85 caddy calipers $220 autozone (and worry about the actaul e-brake hook up once i get the rest together
plus pins and shims $30-40

question: Am I missing anything major?
does anyone have what they consider to be a BETTER alternative??

Also, while at the scrap yards I could not find a single stock rear setup anywhere. My question: are the stock rear backing plates still available new (not interested in anymore scrap yard hunting)??? and if so at approximately what price?

Thanks in advance
