Someone has done a reverse swap-a-roo on your truck. They must have wanted disc brakes on what that had and put the drum on what they were gonna sell. The trucks made for the model year 71- and 72 all had disc brakes, there is some talk of some 70 models but that area is fuzzy to me and I'll let others delve into that. If indeed you do have the drum brakes it may work well for you to do the 67-70 conversion and like you said it may be the cheapest route.
