Information from flickr - thanks to Irish251:

This 707 was built for and delivered to QANTAS in 1965 as VH-EBP. It served with TWA as N14791 for about five years, from 1973-1978 and was unusual in being acquired secondhand.TWA sold it to Air Cargo Egypt as SU-BBA but by March 1982 it was withdrawn from use at Cairo. It was used for some years as a restaurant but was eventually broken up.
