I found it actually breaks up pretty good with my electric demolition hammer with the spike attachment. It won't take very long, I've done this before, like in the mid '60's. Maybe I'll do a video of that too.

When I was watching the video clip from the outside, I was sure the mixer would hit the upper door frame of your shop. From this angle it looked really tight. Luckily it didn't . Cool concrete mixer

I did a lot of careful measuring first. Had 4" to spare on top, but I fear that will change dramatically after I get the cured concrete removed from the barrel.

Mostly just playing it by ear, but making it fully functional and legal again using electronics for remote mixer and chute operations instead of levers, cranks, and brute force. Kind of a resto-mod. Cab interior will be pimped out, but no dingle ***** or dice.
