People by scrapped ICE cars all the time. It may not be one of the mainstream options but it's not rare. It's common. It's possible to fix it up to get a rebuilt title after it had a salvage title from being an insurance write-off.

The fact that filling up a car at a charging/fueling station requires manufacturer support highlights how coupled everything is together.

I am sure, it is possible to charge the salvaged Tesla at most power outlets. Just not high-power chargers, which makes a lot of sense.
