I've been to the actual Deli, the building with the 7up Logo.


where Mark grabs a bite,

it's called Franks Liquor in Hawthorne, CA

Of course everything has changed inside,thanks to modernity,
I didn't take any pictures because I just wanted to soak in the experience and was late for work.

The register dude of course never heard of Zabriske Point, but he did tell me they shot Fast and the Furious that same street.

Thanks for sharing! Did you ask if he'd trust you for the price of a sandwich? I know the airfield scenes were shot in Hawthorne as well. Do you know of any other locations in the movie? The campus, the downtown Los Angeles office building? Or the ghost town in the desert?

Not yet...

I do recall visiting the Easton building before watching the film, it was just that one towering blue Art Deco building in the Background when that one businessman is in his office, the table with the button underneath.

Do you remember where that was exactly?
Here's another location, the store where Mark and a friend purchase guns.
It's still there today - Retting Guns in Culver City, CA.

Was the large "muffler man" statue with blue shoes still there?
