It looks all gone to me. The Home Timber & Hardware Tropics sits on the south part of the property with houses along the northern part where the entrance to the drive-on once stood.
In-between is an open area which seems to be used as storage for the hardware store. Maybe if you squint you might see the remnants of ramps, maybe.
A 2008 Google Street View shows the property as an open field with what appears to be the projection booth/concession stand still intact. The houses already covered the entrance. Safe to say that today nothing is left of the drive-in.
The snack bar and bio box may have demolished? Some of the site is now is a hardware store(Home Timber & Hardware Tropics Hardware). Some of the entrance road is still there with houses(units?) along either side. Some of the ramps may still be there between the houses(units?) and the hardware store(possibly used by the hardware store as a storage yard?). Some of the fences may still be there too?
The Riverside Drive-in was opened by the Mayor of Carnarvon Mr C. Ridley.
