Here are the coordinates for this old Drive-In: 32°27'43.81"N 100°26'21.84"W. You can also use this partial address to get there via Google Earth: Bales Street, Sweetwater, TX 79556. It is (North)behind the current business. In the July 2019 street view, there is a sign on the building that says Key Energy Services. There isn’t much left of the drive-in.
I believe the 1987 topo view is of the Midway drive in down the road from the Mustang drive in.
A possible address is 2094 State Loop 432, Sweetwater, TX.
A 1966 aerial photo shows what appears to be the remains of a drive-in with a go-kart track. The drive-in was on the north side of what is now West Texas Gas and about a ½ mile east of the Midway Drive-In which is still standing.
Today, there is no trace of the drive-in remaining.
