Julie-
  A great idea until you try to remove the master from the plaster....other
than that (and there ARE ways around it, but it does get complicated), it
would be very do-able.   It only depends on how much effort ($) we are
willing to expend.

If a positive master were built with some attention to detail any exterior 
detail would be on the inside during a vacu-form process.

Make the master, then create a negitive mold from plaster. If resistive wire

from a coffee heater was added to the plaster and used to heat the mold, air

pressure added to the outside of the mold (or negitive air pressure through 
very fine holes in the mold) would cause the heated ABS or PVC to collape 
with in the mold. The details would be then on the outside of the model car 
body..
A shop vac could supply both intake & exhaust pressures needed...

I'd say it was my 2 cents worth , but I am broke this week.....
