Late to the party and don't really have anything this year but here's a bump into 2022.
I also see that the quality of items being offered waaaaaay up (and wonder about the participation as well, maybe something can be read into that, maybe not. A lot of stuff was given away in the for-sale forum during the year as well)

David, and the rest of you, that's a nice selection of stuff being GIVEN AWAY FOR FREE, you've really showing the spirit of what this was supposed to be about.
My hat goes off to all of you

I have a set of headlight bulb retainer cups (sort of). I originally needed just the right hand inner cup so I ordered just that one. When I received it, it turned out to be mislabeled and was actually for the left hand inner. My wife then ordered a complete set just to make sure we'd get the one we needed. I used that one RH inner cup from the new set so I'm left with the RH and LH outers and two LH inners. Let me know if anyone could use any or all of these.

Edit: I actually found a fifth one, this last one is for the LH Outer position, so I have one RH Outer, two LH Outers, and two LH inners. This last LH Outer is the one that was originally on my car in the wrong position so it's used and a bit dirty but usable. Looking at it, I think it's actually not a Corvette specific piece because the back has a round hole rather than the diamond shape of the correct ones. All the mounting points are identical to the correct one though so it should work fine. I'm guessing it's a junkyard part from some other GM vehicle.

I'm pretty certain that I forgot to acknowledge receipt of these and I wanted to correct that. I did get them, they look great, the extra will be fully put back into service, and thank you to Gary for sending them to me.
2022 is upon us all now, lets make the best of it to help one another.
Best regards,
David Howard

All C-3 Easy-Jack and C-3 Easy-Tow products have been shipped to all that are getting them this year from this thread. I would love to have given out more of them and maybe 2022 will make that possible, lets all hope for a solid New Year and thank you all for your support and participation.

Default 71 Headlights and Fuel Line

Here are two items to start with. I may have more as I sort thought the parts bin. The following two items are from a '71 small block coupe.

1. Set of 4 headlights (hi and low/hi beam0 Sylvania Halogens. They work fine, but I rarely used the lights, so there should be significant life left on them. I replaced these with T3's for show purposes.
2. Fuel line, never used, from fuel pump to carburator. This will only fit if you have the appropriate carb. See label in photo.

These are free to a new home and I hope the recipients can put them to good use.

You might want to send David a PM.
This is an older 2021 thread and he may not read it if he unsubscribed.
I believe he is still selling them.
Greg!
