It looks like you have full length running boards and rear fenders for duals! Very lucky! :D
What's inside the 'barrel'?

Thanks! I am really pleased with it. Sad to report that the barrel was not full of aged whiskey though! Fortunately, it did contain parts for the truck that had been pulled at some point. The barrel had some serious structural issues and it appeared that it had been in the process of being removed. I came really close to scraping it off and turning it into a flatbed myself, but just couldn't bring myself to do it. I am making a serious effort to preserve the thing while keeping most of the new work inside and out of view.
