A 914 recently landed at Pick N Pull in San Jose. I went for a look this morning. The engine, trans, and interior are gone. The suspension was still all there (brakes and shocks) but this car did not have sway bars. The windshield appeared to be intact. Here are some pictures and the vin and color code for Andy to add to the VIN report.

Is it just the angle or do those steel wheels look wider than usual? If i'm not mistaken, those only came in 5.5" ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

Good eye, Andy!

For a short time, I had similar wheels on my 1972 914. I got them from from a 1973 VW Sports Bug. They were described as Lemmerz VW steel sport wheels, 5.5J x 15, offset code ET34. The skinnier Lemmerz 4.5J x 15 steel wheel has offset code ET41. The width & offset are stamped into the front of the wheel center, between the lug bolt holes.
