Someone please tell me why this era of Chargers is absolutely ignored in 1:18? It can't be solely due to tooling because the Road Runner (71?) that is currently available is identical in EVERY aspect with a Charger of the same generation with the exception of the body. Although most of the cost is in the body I am guessing, it still offers a savings for all of the plastics. Even the windows are a match. I'd love to see a Plum Crazy 1971 RT hit the shelves. I'd probably buy 10 of them myself. Is there a way to communicate requests or send petitions to the manufacturers? Has any campaign like this been successful?

sorry you can't really ask a manufacter to just make you a car. we covered this just a few weeks ago. if you would likea diecast made it would cost 300k or so to do it.

I did not thank you because your post was not helpful. I was not asking to make MY car. If you read the original post I asked why one might suspect they have ignored a generation of Chargers when, from a COST standpoint, 80% of the car is identical to a Road Runner model already available. READ !!
As for the other poster...thank you.
