Any chance you have pictures of the drums BEFORE restoration, any thing is possible but pictures help. Nothing to say your drunk assemblyline worker wasn't detail oriented.





Maybe it wasn't a "drunk" on the line, but perhaps the "new guy" and either he was out to impress the line supervisor, or was a through lad to detail?


I've serviced Mopars since the 70's, often times taking the wheels off the vehicle for the first time for new tires/brakes/etc when I worked in the shop, most wheels were stuck to the drum with paint( which means the line wasn't paying attention to avoiding the studs/wheel mating surfaces), the paint applications ranged from just a few swipes with almost no coverage to drums that looked like they were dunked in paint...
