Joe Bob Briggs, May 15, 1992: “The Sunset Drive-In, at Highway 113 and County Road 27 in Davis, Calif., is being eyed like raw meat by local vulture developers. But fortunately the current plan to turn it into a miniature golf course, driving range, batting-cage facility and arcade is gonna be denied because it might "impact” the endangered Swainson’s hawk. I’m not making this up. Tell these people to let it be a dad-blamed drive-in, like God intended, and the hawks can dive-bomb the hot dog stand for all we care."
The exact address of the interesting complex on the old Sunset site is 22474 Co Rd 100A, Woodland, CA 95776.
CR 27 at CR 100a
Woodland, CA 95776
The drive-in is located on 100a roughly ½ mile south from the intersection of 100a and County Road 27.
I remember seeing both “Scared Stiff” (Martin & Lewis) and “The 5000 Fingers of Dr. T” (Tommy Retig, Hans Conried) at the Sunset. Both were released in 1953. If I went to any movies there before that, I don’t remember it. :)

Highway 113 dosen’t tell where the Drive-In was.
Open ~1955-~1985 approximate? Can you verify better dates?
Open for sure in 1967.
Need more info and photos.
I have it parking only 390 cars and was owned by Peter Garrette.
