Any one out there remember Drive-Ins?  I sure do. We went to more drive-in movies when I was a kid than we did theater movies.  I remember the back of our Chevy wagon and one of my favorite sounds was the sound of cars driving slowly over gravel.  It was great to stretch out in back with the seats folded down and watch the movie.  (I can even remember the list of the movies I saw back then.)

But as we all know – Drive-Ins are fading into the past, sadly.  However, there is an effort to save them.  I read the magazine AutoWeek ….I love this publication, and they had a piece that mentioned Project Drive-Ins.  Apparently, Honda is working on funding to replace the old film projectors with digital projection.

Check out the video and pass it on!!!!

Thanks for reading.
