1985 126- do i likely have ATE or Bendix rear calipers

i need to make a trip to fix the car. I was told the rear brakes are grinding, one pad is down to metal, so I ordered new pads and rotors, but i was told that one caliper may need to be replaced as well.

I know calipers need to be replaced in pairs, and really hope i don't have to replace either of them, but in case I do, I'd like to be prepared. Do I likely have ATE or bendix on that car? I've had them unmounted once before when I changed the rear sway bar end links but don't have the car nearby me yet.
