The April 18, 1953 issue of Boxoffice reported that the new 400-car Twilight Drive-In would open on Highway 30 north of Ontario OR, according to Lawrence J. Dunn, one of the builders.
A 1955 aerial photo showed the already abandoned remains of a drive-in just west of US 30 north of town. A truck stop occupies the site today.

The 1955 aerial shows a drive-in that appears never to have been completed.
While that may be the projection booth sitting in the back, there is no screen or any indication there ever was one. And while there is the outline and ramps, there is no entrance road, fence, or indication of a ticket booth.
Seems the intention was to complete and open it, but something stopped that from happening.
Regardless, the potential projection booth was still around in 1966, but was gone alone with all traces of the drive-in by 1981.
