I cant tell how old the whole stash might be. The case itself is from
1985, but theres also a canopy extender with the Res-Q ensignia whose age I cant determine. Any
suggestions as to its source?

Ill bet thats it, because I also got that trans-dk-blue windscreen and a pair
of those wheels. Thanks for the pointer!

All in all nice going Dave! Cant beat the price :D

I noticed today that their trash hasnt yet been picked up. I wonder if I would
be imposing to sift through their refuse on their driveway for other LEGO
goodies. Im sure that theyd love it.
Dave!

On the way to work yesterday morning I spotted this item plainly visible atop someones open garbage can along the road. I
didnt have time to grab it just then, but it was still there when I was on my
way home, so I stopped and saved it from its fate. Nearby was a similar (though
yellow) case from the Fisher-Price brand Construx, which I also snagged.
Bad news--they werent all that full, and the bits that were there told of the
riches that werent included.
Good news--they werent empty, either, and free is free. As I hoped, the
Construx case also contained LEGO bricks.
The single best find, IMO, was this
piece in not-terrible condition, though the paint is slightly chipped. I
didnt see any other Classic Space elements to prove exactly which set this came
from, but Im still glad to have it. Other nice bits included a small handful
of trans-white 2x4 bricks and two pairs of
this window in white and black,
respectively. These windows in these colors are new to my collection (though
hardly new, I know).
Also included where a half dozen minifigs, among them a headless
firefighter
and a few of these.

Most of the stuff is in generally good condition, though a bit dusty, with only
a few broken pieces. I spotted a number of Tyco elements, too, which also date
from about 1985.
Granted, this isnt an amazing find, but it marks the first time Ive ever found
more than a few LEGO pieces in someone elses discard pile.
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 ;-)
