    Here's a cheap 06 Prius, only $60 so far :lol: I don't know how to post links but here's the site//gsaauctions.gov/gsaauctionsaucitsrh/

    Hope this works

    If you can't find it, go to www.gsaauctions.gov and then search for crash test vehicles, it's the 13th up from the bottom

    I bet you could part that thing out on Ebay for a nice profit. It's located in California. This looks like the kinda thing to make Hobbit drool.

    I'm betting that the MFD and HV batt are in good shape, there's a couple thousand dollars in resale there alone.

    Even all the copper in the motors is valuable for resale at today's copper prices....even if the motors themselves are damaged.

    For sale: Prius. Low mileage. Needs some body work.

    I doubt they'd buy leather just to do a crash test.

    But I agree about parting it out.

    Mats, Tonneau cover, seats, wheels, tires, glove box, wheel, visors, center console, it all starts to add up. Then the mechanicals that are still in good shape, both batteries. Yep. Someone that knew what they were doing could part it out nicely.

    Wonder what shape the back bumper is in? Back panels and hatch seem to be fine.

    Try this one. I couldn't get a link directly to the auction to work so this goes to the main page. Type "Prius" into the search box.
