were these red brake drums taken off of an assembled car and placed in boxes? as can see where wheel was installed on the wet paint.




I think these were actually assembly line issue that somehow got taken off and ended up back in Chrysler's stock. I don't have any proof or knowledge of why but they were boxed with a 1971 date printed on the outside of the container. We have quite a few items on this car that have original inspection marks (still on the part) that were applied by or at the Chrysler facilities. Assembly line parts with original inspection marks from 1970. It makes it very hard to question their correctness!
