The single best find, IMO, was this piece in not-terrible condition, though the paint is slightly chipped. I didn’t see any other Classic Space elements to prove exactly which set this came from, but I’m still glad to have it.

Upon further inspection, I found the 1x4 blue brick with the tell-tale “LL924,” so that’s one mystery solved, but here’s another one.

I found a tow-truck hook assembly that looks a lot like the one in this set, but the hook is metal and may be a non-LEGO element. Can anyone tell me what other sets included this part? It’s red as in 601 and has a textured slope face similar to (but not exactly like) that of standard LEGO slope elements.

Also, I found two vertically-mounted doors that I can’t locate in a parts reference search (and they don’t come up under “door”). They’re gray and have horizontal slats kind of like the classic shutter element. This is a terrible description.

These parts look like they came in a fire engine-ish set, but that’s the best I can do. Any guesses?

Dave!

These sound like the 1x4x4 doors in 7239 but very few other sets -

It's a decently rare part. Not very useful without the 1x4x4 frame (6154) to go with
it, though.

Good grief, how did you find it?  I looked under "door," "hatch," "panel,"
"shutter," "fire," "firetruck," etc. etc. etc.

But that's it--thanks for the help.

Dave!

Actually, I didn't recognize the part until reading your reply, but I do have
two of the 6154 in red.  Since I also have about half a dozen of those
trans-light-blue roller-door elements (4219), I'm guessing that this represents
part of the 6571 Flame Fighters set.

Thanks for the info!

Dave!

In my case, I "found" it because it is one of my favorite parts, I own at least 40-50,
if not more.  And I happened to have a copy of 7239 in my office to reference ;-)

These are my first two copies of the part(s), but I've seen them in a bunch of
MOCs and am glad to get my hands on them (even if my actual LEGO building has
waned lately).

Dave!
