Last operated by Plitt Theatres, closed on September 13, 1980.
This drive-in most likely closed in 1969,as ABC/Wilby-Kincey opened the Cardinal indoor cinema a couple of blocks east of this location that year (the coupon pictured above indicates the Marine Drive-In as an ABC theatre; Wilby-Kincey was at that time the ABC subsidiary operating their North Carolina theatres). The Marine Drive-In was long gone by 1975, as Sanders Ford has been on that site since at least then.

Also, a Ford dealership has been built on the former Drive-In site.
