Stan, A 150 gal tank as you described is worth about $100 or a little more since you have done the dangerous part of opening up the tank by cutting the 2 holes in it. A 150 gal is a nice size tank to put on an axle and be able to move around from Deer camp, to church social to Friday/Saturday football games. Do not cut it in half that is the waste of a good tank. JMO!
If you decide to put it on and axle as I describe then the sky is the limit as to how to build it, We build smokers as a rule with the ability to grill too. IE... RH or LH fire box! an area to grill steaks,chops and the like. or at least a easy way to clean out the main body of the pit , when charcoal is used to grill things. What to add to the trailer assembly ie LP deep fryer to fry fish/potatoes, or even a griddle to fry eggs, or breakfast items, add Electricity for lights when you are cooking at night! A Chuck box to store all accessories. Anyway hope this helps

John A.
PS My pit is a old underground 150 Butane tank, that was at my home as a child (History) on a channel iron frame, with a 1950 front chevy pu axle under it OBTW it has ball bearings in the hubs, NOT roller bearings like newer ones.
It is a LH fire box to the work area. A 1/2thick X 1ft.wide X 5ft.long piece of gray Coran counter top for the cutting board. I built it about 20 yrs ago and still cook as well today as it did when it was New! Yes there are things I should have done different or added! some day when I have more time.
Anyway if you decide to build a new pit you have a nice blank slate to play with. Have fun. Hollar if you like.
Later,
JAS.

Today's Featured Article - History of the Nuffield Tractor - by Anthony West. The Nuffield tractor story started in early 1945.
