El Monte Junk and Salvage | MCU Location Scout

Robbie and Daisy fighting in the El Monte Auto and Salvage Yard.

Most of them wrecked movie cars, they’re dumped at El Monte Junk and Salvage.

Daisy meets Robbie Reyes at this junk yard, and he immediately becomes suspicious and attacks her. The Ghost Rider emerges, but chooses not to kill Daisy, sensing that she is truly a good person.

This is one of the more difficult locations I’ve had to track down for this, or any other series. Night sequences are always tough since there’s limited visibility of everything. But fortunately, several clues led to finding this at the LKQ Pick Your Part auto yard on North Blinn Street in Wilmington.

The auto parts lot no longer exists, which made it difficult to find, specifically due to the red and white radio tower seen in the background of several shots also having been removed. Narrowing it down to the Wilmington area was an assumption made by some of the oil refinery lights seen in the background, as that’s where most of the salvage and recycling yards are in Southern California. The 2016-era satellite image below shows the small trailer/building above Robbie’s head circled in red. The Orange star indicates the area where Daisy and Robbie first talk (outside his garage), and the yellow star is outside the office trailer where they fight.
