Buford Pusser - the model for Gene Hunt?
In any case, Gene would love this guy.
Sheriff Buford Pusser (wikipedia article)
Sheriff: Check.
Cowboy boots: Check.
Guns: Check.
Sexy cars: Check.
Bigger guns and muscle cars: Check.
Tough-guy movie buff: Check.
Starring Joe Don Baker! (Mitchell! The guy who can maneuver a six-pack with his toes, if I recall my MST3K correctly.)
Oh, wait. The Walking Tall movie is about Buford Pusser! And it opened in 1973. Gene would definitely have this poster hanging in his office.
