Need a caddy caliper piston

I caved in one of my pistons (yeah yeah I know... rookie move!!! Flame away!!!!) on my '76 Caddy caliper and want to get my rig running this weekend, but the piston is leaking from the center plug. Anyone have a piston, or one/pair caliper(s) I could have/purchase?

Fred!!! Keep trying, please. I'll be home one of these nights and we can figure out how to get this leaky piston thang to be not so leaky. I will be putting in my new master cylinder tomorrow a.m. and pull off the caliper to see where it's leaking from. I know the dust boot for the piston has a few tiny holes in it, but maybe the inner wiper got rolled, or I just didn't clean out the groove enuff. I have a rebuild kit, so we can try a few thangs to get this caliper to work. There's a gent on Pirate that says he has a pair of new calipers, but I haven't heard back from him re: price or year caliper. I was also told there might be the possibility of ordering a piston only... that would be schweeet!!!!!!

I appreciate the offer, Neil Thank you. I found some at a local parts house (Quality), oddly enough the one from them that matches what I had is from a 77-78 Deville or Fleetwood. Carquest got me the passenger side for the Eldo and it was right on... odd but true.
