Default Brake Pad Identification

Howdy All--I am finally up to putting the 9" together and getting the porject 68 rolling again. I have one set of rear brake pads for my disc brake setup, and I am hoping to identify them and get another set-

-Anyone know where I could find some sort of online chart, or how I can identify exactly what they are? I could take pictures if anyone thinks that might help--any info would be Awesome!! Thanks!

They look to be OEM - do you know where the disc brakes came from? What are the dimensions of the rotor, and it is solid or vented?

The rotor is at my house, im at work--so no measurements on that at the moment, but, the pads surface area is 4+3/4" and the overall length of them is 6" metal tip to tip---They are OEM, I am just not sure out of what, maybe a torino--the whole "kit" was purchased a while ago---

Many brake shoe to pad conversions on Classic Mustangs are from either the Mercury Maverick or the Ford Granada. I would start there.

The rotor size is 11.5 inches---if that makes any difference----
