This is very cool.
Seems a little slow though, it would take ages to eat through a junk yard!
It's amazing what the proper gear reduction can do.

There is a big recycling yard in Tacoma, Washington that my brother used to
take scrap to. It had a conveyor that you placed whole cars on. They went
up the belt and there were piles of glass, plastic, iron, steel, brass,
copper, aluminum, etc. on the other end. It took about 5 minutes a car.
Very noisy. Impressive.

Someone's pride and joy. I see cars much newer than my now 20 year old Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham in deplorable condition. Up north salt is a problem but I just can't understand why people don't take better care of their cars.
