My family and I attended the grand opening of the Mission Drive-In the late 1940s or very early 50s. Lex Barker and Arlene Dahl appeared on a temporary stage. People honked their auto horns in lieu of clapping. Took dates there in the late 50’s and early 60’s. The Mission was in operation at least into the 70s, but by the mid-80s had been demolished.

From what I recall, it was still operating in the 1970s as a twin screener & Syufy theaters was operating it then. They showed a lot of AIP product in the late 1960s & early 1970s.
It was gone by the mid-1980s.
