The closest address for this one is 1337 Broadway Rd, Sanford, NC 27332. The drive-in was located to the left of East Lee Middle School where the Sanford Bypass now is. It also looks like this had 2 screens in a 1983 aerial photo. The remains of the drive-in sat there until around 1999-2000ish when it was cleared for the freeway.
