I think you could narrow down your search to something more specific than "NSW".

Any municipal dump that has a recycling centre will have bicycles around. Where are you?

Sydney area.....I try to look for some very old vintage frame and restore it myself. Should be a good project, but then those frame can be expensive on ebay. So I wanted to go to some junk yard see if i have any luck.

I'm not familiar with Sydney. Canberra's 2 tips have recycle centres and I've seen some nice vintage bikes in need of restoration there. I even bought a nice vintage childrens bike for $10.

Look for something similar in Sydney.
