If one could get the chassis and USA Number it would be a start. That tank has to be part of a clubmobile set up the circular cover plate has to be a clean out item. I'll bet it is something to do with the sludge from the deep fryer or cooking waste system for the kitchen equipment. As for the Pioneer Tool rack, I don't believe there was much choice for the location

Still a great photo and something else to stir the imagination when it comes to CCKWs. It just proves that what ever one consideres to be the norm, can and find exceptions to what we consider standard on these old truck.
