   Check with homeless organizations that are online.  They have comprehensive   
   "survival" information for people who must live on the street, or as in your   
   case, in their car.  They are very active and progressive there, and I'm   
   sure you will be able to get a lot of good information.   
      
   It's going to be awful hot, you know.  Sleeping in a car at night.  You   
   might check to see if there are any dorm type housing available.   
      
   Good luck.  Enjoy LA.
