One of the variable's that no one has mentioned is that the technology is here now that you can print out what body you want in our own home's. Sanding and body work is still involved. Yes there will be a 2 to 5 thousand dollar investment for a printer and all the components and programs that will be needed. Company's are not going to waste there time and money on a low demand product when you can do it yourself for cheaper. There are people making good RC Products from a printer from home Depot and a laptop.

In conclusion a small investment, and print all the trucks that don't exist that your hearts desires. And frustration gone.!

Going by all the custom cabs everyone does, that should be the easy part. Building a drum that spins true seems like the bigger issue, plus all the troughs and other parts.
