I'll start off this discussion on Blind Spot. The junkyard location wasn't just used in KR. The same junkyard was used in other TV shows and movies. In the Incredible Hulk 1st season episode "Of Guilt, Models and Murder" David goes to a junkyard to get info from a guy and he's ambushed by Loni Anderson's character and her henchman. It's the same junkyard, with the white steel craneway and bascule style car crusher. All they did was re-arrange the yard some. In the movie "The Driver" Ryan O'Neil dumps the Ford sedan in the middle of the yard using the craneway. Only thing not visible is the car crusher. In the opening scene of "Corvette Summer" they are in a junkyard looking for the school project. Same white craneway, same bascule style car crusher. Now we just have to find it. Maybe Universal owned the yard??? BUT... Corvette Summer was made by MGM, and The Driver was Fox... could it have been privately owned and rented to each movie studio???

Oh wait, found it in the original locations thread.

They have scaled it down a bit, the craneways are gone and I don't see the old crusher.
