Quote: I know it was considered hot rod cool to paint the underside of your car's front end red in the late '60's and early '70's but did Chrysler use the red brake drums on non-HP cars too?
I think so. I once bought a 43K mile Slant 6 '72 Swinger off of the original owner and it had red painted drums. She was 70 years old when she bought the car in early '72, so I'm pretty confident it came from the factory that way. (It had Rallye wheels if that makes a difference or not.)
