Post Caliper Brackets for 8" Ford Rear

Do any of you guys know where to get a set of caliper brackets to mount 80-85 Eldorado rear calipers for 11' rotors on a small ford at a reasonable price? All the kit builders want "an arm and a leg" for just the brackets. I can buy the calipers and rotors locally. If I had a set of plans I could make them myself.

Check on EBAY. There's a guy making and selling these brackets for about $80.00.

Hey Bill Ford,
I just looked in my Speedway Motors catalog and there are weld-on and clamp-on,then tack weld type caliper brackets ranging in price from $11.95 ea-$31.95 ea.
I used them on my 9" Cougar rear that I installed in my '48 Chevy. There is a picture of the brakes and rear end in my picture album.

Bill when you E-mailed me you didn't leave a return E-mail address. Message for Bill, To look for these Brake caliper brackets on EBAY, type in ( 8 inch ford brakes ) and they will pop up, they are $89.00 for the bolt on brackets that accept the Caddy calipers.
