My state (Illinois) says to qualify for antique plates
"The mechanical and physical condition of the vehicle,
including brakes, lights, glass and appearance, must
be the same or as safe as originally equipped."

So what happens if you get in an accident? Is your
insurance company going to back you up? Looks like the
burden of proof is on you if you've modified your
brakes.

The key phrase in that regulation is "or as safe as" originally equipped.  I 
doubt that anyone, including your insurance company, would claim that the disc 
brakes were less safe than the original drums.
