old school wrecking yard

found this wrecking yard in Christchurch - what a great thing! full of really old stuff:
 
rows of old radios & cassete players:


rows of old starters & generators:

clutch assemblies etc

you name it - it was there - just sheds full of rows and rows of old crap
 

you could spend hours in there
anyway, I scored a couple of old Lucas H4's and a GXL opening 1/4 glass but had to go
but did see this nice 1600gt outside:
 

It's enough to make a grown man cry.......!!!!!!!
Those wrecking yards are long gone from Australia..............sad to say
We all know why 
All your photos are 100/100 

When I came here 15 years ago - there were many fantastic yards like this full of old cars, the price of scrap went up and 90 percent of them are now gone - what a shame....

Brings back memories of here in Adelaide's northern suburbs we had loads of wrecker that had cars going back to 1930s ! One that i became a common sight at was Derby motor wreckers ...acres and acres of cars and rows of escorts, Capris and cortinas ...towards the end of the yard they done a $25 all can carry so my bro and i went there with his TF cortina wagon and trailer and pulled loads and loads of stuff. .Capri struts, door mirrors , diffs, glass, what ever we thought was going to rare in yrs to come ..we drove in the yard to load up and on exit they asked for $25 . A few weeks later the place was levelled and now a steel shop is sited there ironically...those great days are long gone.
