When you ordered Rally I wheels on your 1966 GTO with drum brakes, the drums were painted red. After 1/31/69 when you ordered either Magnum 500 or Rallye wheels with drum brakes on your Chrysler muscle car, the brake drum's front surface were painted red. So what is the origin of the red painted brake drums? Which was the first factory built car to have them? The answer is . . . the 1954 Buick Skylark Convertible
