I am working on a customers car and the idea about a disk brake conversion was brought up. I would like to know if any one has done this swap on this year car, and where i could find a parts list or maybe even a conversion kit. I found a kit for a 67+. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

haven't used them personally, but have seen Scarebird mentioned in good regards by some on this site. http://www.scarebird.com/
They list a bracket kit for your application...everything else is over the counter parts store stuff.

Scarebird brackets are very well made & fit perfectly. The 15x6 Buick wheels all seem to fit. That is about as far as my Conversion has gotten. So far their parts recommendations are pretty accurate.
