[DeTomaso] Original Brake Calipers on other cars?

I have pics of such calipers installed on a Pantera (not mine). Over
here those calipers are common and would make sense for someone who had
terminally bad stock calipers and wanted a quick and easy replacement.
It's not an upgrade but not much of a downgrade either. Brake pad size
is similar so they should take the same kind of abusement as the stock
units.

Line 1169 Girling four piston calipers from a Volvo 240 1991-1992 with 
Vented rotors and ABS are reported to interchange with Pantera 
Calipers 

So... no. They're not Volvo, just that a later Volvo has something 
similar to the Pantera which is where my confusion comes from.
