I took the pictures this summer at the Weisbrod Aircraft museum in Pueblo, CO. It's evidently an airport service truck; it looks custom to me... Anybody seen anything like this before? Did GM provide bodies for this, or is this (as I suspect) a one-off, homemade job?

Someone posted about those previously. Some info in that thread about the company that manufactured them.
Definitely goofy looking, but there were quite a few made back then.
[on edit] here's the old thread. Aircraft tug

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.
