Police have uncovered an alleged car theft and rebirthing syndicate operating out of Sydney's west.
Officers searched two separate industrial complexes in St Marys this week and seized 32 cars, four boats and two motorbikes.
They also found vehicle parts, as well as firearms and drugs.
They allege the two sites were being used for rebirthing stolen cars.
Rebirthing involves transferring number plates from a written-off or crashed car onto a stolen car.
