I used to ride my trail bike in a quarry just out of the capital here about 30 years ago, there was a big deep pit in part of it.
Locals called it "midnight motor wreckers", must have been 50 or 60 late model cars in it.
PD used to go down there on Sunday mornings & check for any new arrivals.
Dont know how many spares I got out of there.
Saw a couple of guys using a winch to get a motor & trans out of the pit once.
Every year or so some DB would set them alight & spoil it for a while.
