The Rockford Files - Backlash of the Hunter - We are stumped on this location and need your help.

In this Rockford episode it appears that they transformed this old motel into a Las Vegas wedding chapel. The second photo shows the brick wall across the street from this makeshift wedding chapel. One would presume that Valley Auto Supply is located in the Simi/Silicon Valley area of California.
Does anybody know the location of this motel?

From the comment section:
I'm confused. Wouldn't this be in the San Fernando Valley, like many Rockford Files locations, and not the Simi or Silicon valleys?

Yes, it could also be from the San Fernando Valley area...
I stand corrected and thank you!

Gazzarri's on the Sunset Strip - 9039 Sunset Blvd., West Hollywood
Founded by Bill Gazzarri (above photo) who died in 1991.


This one we need help with, the exterior shot of this restaurant shows "Peacock Bar" but the interior shots show the wait staff wearing shirts that say "Butterfield's"... Anybody know what the real name of this place is and where it is located or once located?
