They don't - they were part of RPO V75 "Traction Compound Dispenser" on some of the steel-bodied cars; Fisher body drilled holes and attached the housings to the rear wheelhouse inner panels in the trunk and ran a vacuum hose forward to the instrument panel, where Chevrolet installed a button to the left of the steering column and ran a vacuum line to the intake manifold from there. The customer inserted the pressurized cans in the housings, attached the cap, and when the button was pushed, a diaphragm in the cap pushed on the bottom of the can, which sprayed the sticky goop through the holes on the rear tires. The cans in the auction are item #2 in the illustration below.
It was offered on the Camaro in 1969, and out of about 375,000 Camaros built, less than 40 were built with V75; not one of the greatest options ever dreamed up, and it didn't work for squat anyway.
