so what about cars that came with factory disc brakes up front? did the rotors get painted red also or just the face of the rear drums? Seems silly to only have red showing through the rears and not the fronts.
I posted the DRUM Factory print a few posts up, I have a print somewhere?, either in Manual, on CD, or in the "pictures saved" on my puter....IIRC, just the face (basically the side showing thru the rim slots/holes) of the caliper was brushed with the same drum paint, no paint on the rotor...if I find it, I'll post it...at "work" right now 
Id appreciate that since my car is a factory disc brake car. I currently have the rear drums natural cast color since I thought it would look strange with just red in the back and bare metal up front.

We just picked up a 72 charger rallye last week for parts. It is a factory power front disc car and it still had the red painted rear drums.
We didn't take the front wheels off so I could not tell you about the calipers.

The paper Daylcona posted is the one I have here somewhere. (I remembered incorrectly about the hemi suspesion however..it's been a long time)
I don;t have the exact details handy, but the calipers were also painted red...at least the area seen through the wheel.
Ok, great. thanks. Would anyone have any of the assembly sheets that show this also? i'd love to have some kind of factory documentation to support this at shows.

That would be the drawing Dayclona posted, a blueprint from Chrysler spelling it out.
Unless people are faking blueprints now.
I can't afford this.

Thanks Mark, I printed that one out but after closer inspection on it, there is nothing on it that says about if the face of the caliper should or should not be painted.

Still have lots of docs/pics to go thru....found this one that describes the caliper on B42 equipped cars (heavy duty discs 11" rear drum) as being "orange"?.....if you compare the description between #'s 14 and 21
