The casting of this Gun Slinger is very similar to the casting for the Grass Hopper of 1971. The chief differences being that this model omits the hole in the hood for a blown engine to show through like it did in the earlier vehicle and the windshield is now just a frame and part of the interior piece. It has a huge, swivelling gun mounted in the rear and sticking out well past the front of the vehicle.
