Is this possible?
I know people are talking about making bodykits out of plastic. Would it be possible to make a whole car body out of straight plastic sheet? If anyone has some tips of how this might be done, please post them. Do't really have a pic of the car I want to do, its more of a dream thing I want to do, just to test some of my talent right now.

it is hard but i think it can be done... you probably won't be able to achieve the detail of course... post some pics of your creations:
cars to do: VW Jetta/Bora Audi S4 or RS4

Possible, yes
Difficult, OH YEAH The best way that i can think of to do this is make your self a frame of what you want the car to look like then bend and shape the plastic to fit. This would kind of be like planking the hull of a model or real boat.

Anyways, rcmax, that's some pretty crazy stuff that he did! Dang, that's out of my league!

There's also vacforming, Hiroaki has some details of this on his site. Also 'NoRightTurn' builds Dirt Racers from styrene sheet.

The car I want to do isn't that complicated. Here's a pic I found from E-bay.
 As I said, its just a dream of mine.

I'm surprised that no one has made a resin version of that already, would be a great seller with all the Hot Wheels fans.

I've always wanted to try my hand at scratch building my own cars. I envisage that the hardest part would be making the clear window/light lense parts
