You're likely going to have better luck finding a '63-'70 rear end (heck I have one spare) and putting in conversion axles. In many ways this is better as the aftermarket axles are stronger and will have no wear on them. The 6 lug backing plates/brakes don't have to be changed, just put '71-'72 drums on with the new axles. Did this on my old '68 years ago (not the one in my signature).

I assume that along with conversion axles companies sell disc conversions to fit those converted axles? Really aiming for disc all the way around.
