A pair of decent second hand back plates too ?...they don't look new .
Naa, I must have just knocked the rust off them. The struts and wishbones were replaced soon after that photo though.The only real problem you might encounter is if you need to remove the caliper carrier brackets to allow the discs to be removed, you could end up snapping a bolt off if they are rusted really badly.
Worth giving those bolts a dose of Plus Gas or similar, not WD40, a few times in days the before you attempt to undo them, and whatever you do use 6 sided sockets not 12 sided cos less chance of slipping and rounding the bolt heads off.
