Not sure. I was trying to find some info on southtexasdiecast last night.
But I'm not sure yet which release it is.
Any info would be appreciated.

The '73 Mongoose was issued with the snake body as they had an excess of cuda body's instead of the duster body. It could be had in both red and blue. The casting number 6969 will be present underneath the body of the roof. Also, it will have open hub medium front wheels and large cap wheels on the back. Hope this helps.

Good stuff. Real Riders always look great with the turbines on those older trucks and jeeps.

FSF, they are Jeep CJ-7

NP, there's also the Trailbuster Jeep too. This entry has links to a bunch of other confusing and renamed HW Jeeps.
