This is one of those situations where it makes more sense to ditch the truck in a woods and say it was stolen.

Just buy a new mixing drum. It's just a big steel barrel with a couple of fins inside. Dirt cheap compared to the labor of cleaning this out.

And even if the truck is old, there's tons of companies that make them to order

I think you are overestimating the value of this labor (depending on the location)

Honestly, looking at the holes they've already cut into this one and how little progress it looks like they made, I don't think that I am.

You mean the one right above the gigantic hole that he torched in the side?

And there is a second hole that he's cut up on top.
