Now Wayside Bodyshop, its possible they kept the drive-in marquee and now use it for their own sign.

A 1982 aerial shows the drive-in intact.

By 1995, it had been totally demolished.

Today, the property is occupied by Wayside Body Shop with no trace of the drive-in remaining. The current marquee of the body shop was not from the drive-in. The new marquee sits where the projection booth/concession stand once stood.
