The Motor-Vu closed on August 19, 1977 and was demolished that same year. However after being demolished, a 1981 aerial view shows that only some traces still remain on site, but was gone in the 1996 aerial view.

I was born and raised in Billings, Montana and frequented all three of the drive-ins. The Motor-Vu, Sage Theater & City-Vu. The City-Vu Drive-In was located north of Billings on the east side of Main St. in the Billings Heights, past the Lake Elmo Road junction. The Motor-Vu Drive-In was located on the old Laurel Highway west of town next to the West Parkway Truck Stop Cafe. The Sage Theater Drive-In was located on S. 24th St. W. across from Canyon Dr. All three theaters are tore down and gone, but not forgotten!
