I Have tried goign around the block a few times and returning, vans do move but no car has popped up!

It's not exactly quick to restart the whole mission again

I'm afraid you have no choice but to restart from the beginning of the case. I got the car using my prescribed method on the first try, thus I'm not sure if it's guarenteed to be there or not.

Well I CAN CONFIRM this method works quite good. THANKS AGAIN. It was right there, even in the very cut-scene as you arrive @ the factory. It was parked right in front of the office entrance. Mine was babyblue though. One more to go.

The International Police Wagon can be found at the crime scene for "The Driver's Seat." It's the van they put the arrested suspects in.

The Hudson Super Six I found at the intersection of 4th and Los Angeles St. You can find it parked at the garage there called Scott's Garage (Or something similar) or its driving around in the area.

1.Hudson super 6
2.Packard custom
3.Nash deluxe 600 army
4.Buick ambulance
5.International police wagon
6.Studebaker commander

It doesn't matter which disc you use. As for some of your cars:

The Nash Deluxe 600 Army car is found at an airport. If you look at the map, its in the middle to the far left of the map. Find a vertical street there called Van Ness and you should see on the map what looks like an airport. There are a bunch there.

Buick Ambulance can be found at the Good Samaritan Hospital (Its a landmark.) There are 2 parked behind it at the emergency doors. If they arent there, drive around. Mine showed up at night if that helps.

Studebaker Commander AND International Police Wagon can be found at the crime scene "The Driver's Seat." As SOON as you get there, the Studebaker will be parked behind you. The wagon will be to the left of the scene, its the van used to put suspects in.

Hudson Super Six I found around the intersection of 4th and Los Angeles St.

I know how you feel. Haha, I constantly kept going to that intersection checking the garage and it was never there, but luckily it was right on the road in front of the garage at a stoplight. Vehicles are the worst collectibles.

I know for a fact that the nash deluxe is at that airport. There are tons there. And like I said, the wagon and studebaker are at almost every crime scene, Driver's Seat is just the easiest and the buick ambulance, people kept saying between Beacon and Union but its NEVER there. Best bet is to find the two at the hospital.

the IPW and the SC police are actually both found on the 2nd or 3rd homicide case at the scene. It's the one at the alley and you follow the blood trail to the roof.

No need to tell me, especially in a game with this time period, where almost every damn car looks the same doesn't help much either. man i hope i find them all by tomorrow.

Haha, EXACTLY. That was my biggest complaint last night while I was searching for them.

[trevor2p]

Looking for the lincoln continental convertible and the desoto 2DR. The cars are not there in the given descriptions, thanks!

Yup yup, haha, I just caused traffic at an intersection and just went one by one.. nope, this one has 3 bars on the side. Nope, this has two windows on the back, not one. UGHH! Haha, and then I would find one car finally, and then all of a sudden that car is driving everywhere. Oh, thanks game.

I managed to get the Desoto 2DR during that case The red lipstick murder at the bamba club. You could try reloading and trying again.

As for the Lincoln, I think I found mine in the parking lot right across the street from the Central Police Station. (Traffic Desk Police Station) You can try there.

[Elux]

I've found a road where heavy traffic comes from four directions in Wilshire. Seems like it would multiply your chances by four to get the car you want if you use this location.

Zoom out your map and where it says HOLLYWOOD in large letters, the vertical street that is on the bold O in HOLLYWOOD is Van Ness. Go down that street on the map till you see Lemongrove. The airport is to the left of Lemongrove. Its called Hughes or something like that.

[trevor2p]

about to throw this game out my window if i spend any more time looking for the lincoln continental convertible, seriously where the f are you?!

[thoseAREmySHOES]

Finally got all the cars today! That stupid Packard Custom, I shouldn't have drove around looking for it, I should have just played the case you suggested!

Ok you made it much clearer, found it. 3 more to go.....

IPW and Studebaker Commander, ill have to check the last 1. there has to be somewhere i can find them without having to replay a mission.

This one must be wrong. I've been to it over a dozen times, and each time all I see are Instaheat trucks. No cars in sight in the parking lot at all. And yes, I did make sure not to go to Instaheat until the case forces you to go there.

As I said in a previous post, most cars are in completely random locations. Out of all of the locations listed, only a few were actually at their locations, while most I found by randomly driving around (and sometimes not even in the area where they were found on the list). If I found them in their "fixed locations", it usually takes me quite a few restarts of cases for them to show up at all.

Anyway, I only have 3 cars left. Packard Custom, Nash Deluxe 600 Army and Buick Ambulance. However, I think I can find the other two fine in free roam. But having to restart cases to find ones that are supposed to be in certain cases is kind of a pain in the ass, since you can't skip most cutscenes.

Yea the silk stocking murder, ive seen both of them and the game would not let me get in them. ill try again.... one last time.

[Mars Renegade]

EDIT: Figured it out.

[Annalie]

Well im done, got the achievement just now. thanks to those who helped me and the guide.... thank god that's over..... now on to gold films.

[GalaxyRed13]

I decided to just continue with the other cars, and was able to get the Buick Ambulance, and Nash Deluxe 600 Army literally right as I got to their locations on this list.

I still need the Packard Custom to complete the list, so I figured the Instaheat factory might have it even in free-roam. But I haven't found it there, or anywhere else nearby. So does anyone else have any good locations where they might be at, instead of just near Instaheat?

[rockhopper]

Okay I only need 1 more car and it's pissing me off. The last 2 cars I needed must be messed up in the guide. I'm referring to 2-door #'s: 5 - Buick 2dr Sedanette & 23 - Packard Clipper Six.

I went to the LA Library during "Quarter Moon Murders" and kept quitting to main menu and resuming game and get different cars every time. I can confirm this method works as I used it for several other cars just after a save point. Well I finally got one of the last 2 cars I needed. It's supposed to be #23 as it says to go to that library. But it turns out it was the #5 car (which is supposed to be near the Sawyer house fire in Arson case.)

So I've been reloading the spot where #5 is supposed to be and the alternate spot for #23 next to the gun store in "Buyer Beware." I'm not having any luck. So my question is are #5 & #23 both supposed to be at the library? Should I go back there and keep trying or could #23 be where #5 is supposed to be instead? Or even simpler, if anyone can just confirm an actual location for the 2-Door #23: Packard Clipper Six.

Edited to add: This achievement sucks! Too many cars look alike.

[VELVETxASSASSIN]

I am missing two vehicles, - 2 door (packard clipper six)
- service (chevrolet tow truck)
I've been at elysian fields forever with no sign of it. If any1 has a more accurate location for these two vehicles it would be greatfully appreciated.
