Definitely worth holding onto for spares if you've got the space. At a minimum, I would keep the complete engine/transmission/differential/rear hatch assembly/tail lights/rear bumper. If the interior is decent, the carpet is unique as well as the rear seats and back, but gasser models of newer

In the Murray incident, the state owns the car, and I would assume, the data box. When I own the car, they'll need probable cause to get a search warrant for my data box. (unfortunately, a lot of judges don't even seem to read warrants before they sign them, so that's a minor formality)
