Why not modeling clay? Start by using wood to take up most of the volume, then put the modeling clay on top of that and work into the shape. This is basically how they do clay models of full size vehicles. Probably easiest to do details, etc. with.
Then you can do a two-step mold on top of that, then use that mold to produce your final plug for use in the vacuum forming process.
This is what I've been toying with myself as I need to widen a SC8 body to fit my RC8T.

Hey that's a good idea, my wife suggested clay but I figured it would cost to much but using it on top of wood saves money.
I'll look into how much clay I'll need an the cost.
at the least I can go pick up some soft wood and start on my form.
