So I want to make the mould of a full car but my problem is I can't take the car apart to make the mould.
Is there something i can use, to lift the template of the car, and then use that to make the mould?
let me know if you need clarification about the questions?

3D scan it and separate the parts into manageable parts with 3D software and 3D print it.....lots of parts
Or maybe cover car in a release agent and place cloth soaked in a plaster type material. When dry take the hard part off and use as a mold in which to paint on a resin?

You could make a silhouette of the car, but not in enough detail to make individual panels
