Navy Plane Tug: 1953 Ford Szekely Jeep

Otto E Szekely was an engineer who turned businessman a few years before the outbreak of World War II, and he produced a few custom machines for U.S. Navy use with basic “Jeep” architecture. You can read more about Szekely’s heroics here on warjeeps.com or you can buy a project 1953 Ford Szekely Jeep offered for $3,600 near Los Angeles, CA via craigslist.

The information on this particular style of utility vehicle is limited, but it appears to be a 4X4 airplane tug that is built on a Jeep chassis with custom aluminum body/tub/fenders/hood/gas tanks. It won’t rust easily and would look AMAZING polished!Under the hood is a Lincoln/Ford 317 cubic inch V8, which doesn’t work at this time, but it shouldn’t be too hard to find parts for it. The seller is quick to point out that this isn’t Frankensteined, because it rolled out of some small assembly line just the way you see it here…mostly…probably.


The seller includes a single photo of a similar vehicle hooked up to some old 50s airliner, so at least you get some idea of what this should look like when restored. Additional web searches indicated that Mr Szekely was not just a businessman, but was also an inventor — the patent below is for a unique three-wheel steering system for a small industrial trike

Western Pacific 803-A, an EMD F3A built in 1947 and seen here pulling the famous California Zephyr. 803-A was retired in 1971 and traded in the manufacturer for a new model; no information on what, if anything, happened after that.

HB-IBA was a 1951 Douglas DC-6B that was Swissair's first aircraft of the type and flew with the airline until 1962, and has quite a story to tell. There are many vintage photos online and even a mass-produced diecast model. Changed owners a few times, eventually converted to cargo bearing tail number N999SQ, and put into storage in Fairbanks, Alaska, in 1994. Gradually stripped over the next few years (Everts Air Cargo of Alaska is the last commercial operator of the DC-6 in the US and no doubt used the parts to keep others flying), and in 2001 its cockpit section was affixed to the facade of local business, where it remains today: https://www.aerialvisuals.ca/AirframePhotoViewer.php?Serial=3789

s13a LTI can see specific-to-´46 parking lights, and the trim is slightly above the wheel arch, though, admittedly it´s not very visible from this far :think:

I personally think this is a bit of an illusion caused by the curved angle in this image (...and most of the images in this film).

Citation NC-1A is a dedicated aircraft starter unit designed for service on carrier decks. Created on the frame of the Willys CJ-3A commercial 4x4 vehicle, NC-1A served on all U.S. Navy carriers throughout 1950s and 1960s.

so we can name it NC-1A

Lateef NOI think this is a 47/48; notice how the trim almost touches the wheelarches - on the 46 there's a significant gap. 2021-08-04 17:48

Lateef NOI think a 48/49 Packard Six Taxicab Limousine. I'm a little unsure about the outline of the door, but that might be an effect caused by the angle. 2021-08-04 08:41
Lateef NO51/52 DeSoto De Luxe or 53/54 DeSoto Powermaster - best way to tell them apart from the rear is whether the windshield is divided or not. 2021-08-04 08:29
