Starting my first car-supplies
Hello All - biggrin

I am in the process of starting my first art car. I have a very "busy" idea for the car and want to collect supplies before getting my car. I don't want to stare at the car for months as I try to find stuff. tongue

The hardest things so far seem to be finding old/used mannequins. I need at least 5 and then various body parts if possible. Any ideas on where I could find some would be awesome. I tried craigslist and they only have new ones or ones that are still usuable for retail posted.

Thank you!!!

Have you thought about making your own out of styrofoam? I have't found a good source of mannequins, but I know some people buy bulk stryofoam, cut their own parts out of a block, then paint / fiberglass / seal it.
