1957 CJ-3B Airport Jeep Albuquerque, NM SOLD

UPDATE: Was on eBay

" What a find. A 1957 Willys CJ-3B Luggage Conveyor Jeep. This vehicle was owned by TWA in Albuquerque New Mexico for the early part of it's life. It was later used by Texas Air as a luggage conveyor to load their aircraft. This vehicle is complete, minus the conveyor for loading, but the front mounts are included. The engine turns but it doesn't run at this time. This vehicle will have to be restored. There is information and pictures of similar Jeeps used at airports at cj3b.info."

there was one of these for sale in the last month on this site. i was trying to make sense of the right rear quarter, but the rest of the jeep was highly modified.

it had a little custom railing where the top edge of the fender would normally be.

not sure how this would look on the road. at the airport it might work but on the road very little use.
