Its most likely that it originally closed in the early-1980s.

The screen was already gone by 1959. A lot of material or small buildings took over nearly half of the traces.

Once operated by USA Cinemas, later Loews, and later National Amusements. It was also once known as Loews Covedale Theatre.

50sSNIPES commented about Aut-O-Rama Twin Drive-In on Apr 12, 2026 at 11:51 am

What’s really funny is that I just drove by the Aut-O-Rama yesterday afternoon while driving my way to Chicago for a weekend vacation. And indeed, the screens are much larger than I-80 itself. I was so close for getting a picture.
