I'll second the wheelchair or mobility scooter. Those things are
generally built very well and will have power (and bearings, etc) to
spare.

I took a temp job fixing those, and encountered a few users who had
fallen through the cracks and couldn't get Medicare to pay to fix
them. Thus I didn't salvage any repairable scrapped parts to make a
robot, although they would be very good for that purpose.
