Upgrading brakes on 1950 1 ton 3800.

My brakes are the next job on my project list on my '50 3800 single wheel 1 ton. My idea is to change over the front to disc and keep the stock rear drums. I don't want to spend a fortune, but I do want to do it right. Do I buy the caliper bracket and piece the front brakes together from picknpull or do I buy a kit that has everything I need, including master cylinder and brake booster. What's everyone's thoughts on either those options or are there other options I'm missing. Or should I keep everything stock and just add a brake booster? I'm fairly new to a lot of this and I bought this truck as a novice mechanic- meaning I need to keep it somewhat simple.
