A 1963 aerial shows the screen still up, but the drive-in appears closed and partially demolished.

The Wheatley was less than a half-mile due east of the Sunset Drive-In.

A closer address (at least for Google) is 400 Golf Links Road, Hot Springs, AR.

Today, the property is occupied by Forest Grade Mobile Home Community with no trace of the drive-in remaining.
