The Austin Daily Texan, writing a couple of years later about a night at the Rebel, said that its opening date was July 11, 1979.
The drive-in was surrounded by a corrugated tin fence about six feet high. Sound was delivered via “cine-fi,” an AM radio system that required clipping a connector to the car antenna. The article (published Sept. 21, 1981) said that most of the Rebel’s 840 parking spaces were filled on a Wednesday evening.
Opened in 1979. Closed in 1988.
