You can remove the caliper after removing the rotor.  You can undo the 8 bolts
from the rotor and drop the rotor down and away from the caliper.  Then you
can have access to the two bolts that hold the caliper in place.  Best to
detach the brake line at the back where it joins the T fitting.  Pretty easy
once you have the rotor out.  Just did this on my '79 Alfetta...same system.
