Perhaps not the van that went to the crusher, but the returns from shipping accidents.
I once had a 100 pound item shipped to me in a light cardboard box for paper towels, filled with peanuts. The carton was ripped, the peanuts were gone, and a large corner of the chassis looked like it had been mashed by a heavier box. Wasn't replaceable. Ya gotta love eBay - anybody can participate.

It might need a bit of a tuneup: 160349277602 "Some assembly required" :-) I wonder if they were both left in the van that was sent to the crusher.
