A closer address, at least for Google Maps, is 745 W 13th Ave Zapata, TX.
The drive-in sat to the SW of Junior’s Drive-Inn and today is an open field across from the football stadium. You can just barely see the outline and the entrance road still exists.

Billboard, Jan. 30, 1954: “Humberto Gonzales has opened a drive-in theater at Zapata, Tex.”
The concession building stood until 2008.
In the 1955-56 Theatre Catalog, the only drive-in listed in Zapata was the Ramos, owner Felix Ramos, capacity 200. Same drive-in?
