Yatala Drive in, Brisbane is still a goer, as is Tivoli Drive in at Ipswich.

While the basic Ford Six was code named Barra, the Turbo version clearly deserved its very own moniker – again enter Gordon Barfield.
We asked him if the engine had actually been called “Seagull” and how that came about.

The Rodeo Drive in at Mareeba is still going strong, cheap night out watching movies under the stars.
