Why does that 1970's Dewback look so much better than the ropey one in the Special Edition's ?!

I didn't care for the redesign in the Special Editions. But its ok, because I don't acknowledge the Special Editions and instead only watch the Original Versions. :)

I have to double-check this, but I've read that the Dewback was actually a prop rented/found in Tunisia. The question is: which obscure pre-1977 tunisian movie features such a creature?

Many chances this piece of information is inaccurate. The book "The art of Star Wars" shows at least one sketch for it by the late production designer John Barry.
