Secure Storage From Recycled Tanks

Two members of The Western Montana Antique Power Association near Hamilton, Montana have found an ingenious way to recycle a couple of large (10' diameter by 20' long) liquid storage tanks into a nifty place to keep their treasures secure and away from the elements.
Lewis Condon and Jim Watts acquired these tanks and had them delivered on a lowboy only to discover the truck/trailer rig couldn't maneuver to the final destination. They unloaded them on the road and proceeded to skid them to their final resting place.

Come along and you'll see how they did it.
