The entrance is now The Coca-Cola Bottling Company. Approx. address for this drive is now 3400 West Idaho Street. Was US 40 now Nevada 535.
JWmovies is correct, the address (at least for Google) is 3400 W Idaho St, Elko, NV. The actual drive-in sat on the north side of the property where the parking area is currently located. It retains the basic shape and ramps, otherwise there is no trace of the drive-in remaining. http://tinyurl.com/j69jqyj
