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)

Here is a different angle on the tire / rim. The tires were a set of Pirelli 4000 195/60/15 which were in decent shape and all matched. They even all had the black plastic center caps for the rims.

All steel rims were there and matched. I was about to grab the caps but one had some minor scratches so I slapped them back on the car for some one else.

No idea. I find it is very subjective based on the mood of the counter clerk. I called and they said $5.00 for the rim and the tire starts at $6.99 and can go up to $15.00 depending on the condition. Here is their Price List.

Michael,
Last time I was there, there were 2 914's, a white one and a yellow. Are they still there?
