I do not know if there is any car that will have disc brakes that will adapt directly to your spindles. Speedway motors has a service that will machine your spindles to accept one of their disc brake kits.
Go to the speedway website and type part #916-32101 in the search box. That is the machining service part # here is a link:
http://www.speedwaymotors.com/ The part # for their disc brake kit is 913-3105
I don't know if scarebird has brackets for that application but they might be worth a try.

I have no idea what would fit the rear. Did you try looking in the knowledge base?
Hope this helps, mikey
