"With a ferocious appetite, the provincial government touring car crushing machine spent two days at Riverside Auto Wrecking in Thronhill last week devouring "old bodies". Before the crusher begins its feast, all rubber and useable parts are stripped from the cats and into the gobbler it goes. The machine takes care of several cars at a time in some instances, one on top of the other."
