I got some salvage yard Suzuki Swift GT rear calipers--they're the right thickness for the Metro front discs and they have hydraulic driving brakes and cable parking brakes. I haven't figured out how to mount them yet, but I'm confident I will.
Oooh, I hope I haven't jinxed it. Maybe I should say, "I'm overconfident I will."
PS--the Swift GT has vented front rotors, which I think are overkill for this car. There won't be a lot of weight transfer on braking and there'll be some rear weight bias at rest, so I think the same brakes all around will be fine.
