Ford still makes the lighter-duty SRW in cutaway for small Class Cs, but no longer appears to offer the SRW as a stripped chassis. I imagine that if a large company like Thor wanted it, Ford would build it for them.

I would imagine if a company asked them for a lighter chassis Ford would direct them towards the Transit as that is the future of Ford's Vans.
