The name etched on the kegs is "Firestone Steel Products B-8 *", and then below that it says "Challenger 'VI' ".
These are 5gal kegs. They appear to be either pin-locks or ball-locks that had sanke adapters welded into the tops (see pics). I pulled the rubber off of one of the in/out ports, and they appear to have been either welded shut, or sealed with some kind of epoxy (can't tell which, but its sealed shut), so I'll probably have to use the sanke fitting. They both came with a hand pump tap, but I will be giving those to my brother or selling, and buying a co2 sanke tap.
What do you guys think? btw, these are still both about half full of beer. Not sure how old it is. I'm almost tempted to try pouring a glass and trying it to see...
