I did see some irony in it being in the 'Disabled' space!

I suspect that it probably was a car that was involved in a impact of some kind which compromised the tub. Either that or it was a tub that had run 'X' number of hours and was deemed to be at the end of it's useful life. There were plenty of parts on it that looked as though they were used. I would guarantee that this car had no engine or transmission installed. They normally just fit some kind of space frame in the rear to hold everything together.

You could have a pretty safe bet to say that that car saw some sort of transmission or engine faliure - there was no shortage of them was there!
