Police say the "Easy Rider" actor had noticed the car in his neighborhood for some time, and LAPD homicide detective Steve Turner says when he checked inside he found a dead body.
Fonda reported the body in the car about 2 p.m. on Wednesday just off Sunset Boulevard on Los Liones Drive.
A coroner's investigator responded and found the body, believed to be a man in his 50s.
An autopsy is planned, but at this point investigators believe the death was a suicide.
