This drive-in was part of Elmer Bills' chain in the early sixties.

The Lin-Vu Drive-In opened its gates by the B&B chain on June 29, 1952 with an unknown technicolor movie. It was first managed by H.L. Summy, and was owned by both Frank Weary of Richmond and the one-and-only Elmer Bills of Salisbury.
The theater closed in the late-1980s.
The North Central Missouri Branch of the YMCA currently sits on the property. There is no trace of the original drive-in remaining as it was totally demolished.
However, the entrance/exit road was repaved and is currently in use today.
