Do not know. That was my first thought was something to do with a camper.

I have some drums. I may need to put 5 of them in there and see how they fit. It does look like the correct diameter.

Half ton pickup's performed the worlds work duties until duallie one tons started showing up in the mid 70's. It was a different world back then. A lot of things I'd like to still be happening is this day and age. Like folks knowing how to do an honest days work...
This is a C20 and it looks like it is as old as the truck is. It could have hauled anything in its day. It had a 4 speed and an Eaton rear end.
