Someone found a shipping container full of Canadian made old T3's & Power Beam Headlamps not too long ago.They were sold off in sections and have been floating around both countries for awhile now.So many,that I personally would not a premium for em.

I have a couple of the small T3s that were aftermarket (back in the day) replacements in the box still.

Nice ! A good week for Nova builds... I can just imagine the feelings of the local guy here who ordered the car waiting anxiously by the train station waiting to get to see it !

My 70 Z28 has the original power beam headlamps that say Guide at the bottom. I also bought over the counter that also say Guide. I purchased the car in 1987 with 32000 miles. Original paint, tire ,belts, brakes and hoses ect., so I'm assuming they are the originals. Production date is 6/70.

What is a Power Beam with guide worth? I found one in some of my stuff. I've also got some 1 and 2 T3s.
