quick ? - 6 lug disks

If I bought 6 lug wheels, and wanted disk brakes, would I have to buy 6 lug rotors, or do the 69? or 70 trucks have 6 lug disks, if there is such a thing? Im wanting to do the cheap bolt on swap from a disk brake truck to my 68.
Thanks

I think the part venders all carry the 6 lug rotors, or try earlyclassic.

GMCpauls carries them too.
There were no factory 6 lug discs in the older trucks.
I wonder about the new 6 lug rotors, if they would fit older spindles...

I think there was a post swapping the entire front crossmember from 71-72 for that interchange.
