As of April last year the huge screen was still standing, it can be seen on Google Street View. Looks like there was also a go-cart track as part of the facilities.
Approximate address is 959 Sir Lowry’s Pass Rd, Gordons Bay, Cape Town, 7151. The site has somewhat been divided up however the white building on the angle at this address was the snack bar/concession building. The ramp markings can be seen in older Google Earth images.
I think I’ve found the location, the address is Range Rd 144 & Alberta 16A, Minburn County No. 27, AB, T0B 2S0. The entire site has been demolished but the ramp markings can still be seen.
It was actually located on Geranium Road, Magalieskruin, Pretoria, 0182. It was there until 2002 and it looks like it also had 2 screens. It’s now been demolished and is now gated housing. The housing is broken into sections named after Famous actors Like Lee Marvin, Clint Eastwood etc.
Found this one, the best address is 13744 GA-74, Woodbury, GA 30293. It can be seen in a 1955 aerial but as predicated it looks like it didn’t last long. Demolished by 1969 however a building still stands on the site close to the road, possibly the owners house? Site is now overgrown.
Approximate address thanks to backseater is 117 Hillcrest Rd, Tulia, TX 79088. It also seems that the concession building was on the site until 2017-18ish.
Its currently an empty lot, the foundations of the concession building and ticket box still exist. You can still see the ramps, but its right next to a cemetery and I reckon they will eventually expand it over the old drive-in site.

The sign is still being used for the swap meet by the looks of it.
Agreed with Kenmore, it’s not a screen.

Was open in 1957, closed sometime in the 70’s.

The concession/projection building still exists,you can even see the projector port holes on the side of the building.

There is also a street in the housing estate called Yucca Drive.
The concession building stood until 2008.
Concession building still stands.
Looks like it was still operating in the early 80’s, seems intact in a 1982 aerial photo.

As of May 2019 the screen still stands and the roadside marquee might still be there.
It looks like they were working on expansion when it closed, a 1954 aerial photo appears to show construction on more ramps at the back of the field.
Another one that appears to double as a parking lot during the day.
Now a housing estate, however the concession building still remains among the houses built on the site.
A better address is Starline Place, Mount Gambier. Now a housing estate.
Now Wayside Bodyshop, its possible they kept the drive-in marquee and now use it for their own sign.
The late 1950’s closing date is probably accurate, a 1960 aerial photo shows the drive-in completely demolished without a trace left.
The drive-in has been completely demolished but the ramp markings can still be seen, its now an empty field.
Approximate address now is actually 2104 W Broadway Ave, Sulphur, OK.
The housing estate has an entrance road called Rue du Cine Park.
