Extract string from multiple file based on line count number

Hi,

I search all forum, but I can not find solutions of my problem Smilie
I have multiple files (5000 files), inside there is this data :

FILE 1:
Code:
 1195.921  -898.995 0.750312E-02-0.497526E-02 0.195382E-05 0.609417E-05
-2021.287  1305.479-0.819754E-02 0.107572E-01 0.313018E-05 0.885066E-05
    85.928 -1529.405 0.990965E-02 0.224840E-02-0.157472E-04 0.581893E-05

FILE 2:
Code:
  1228.633  -924.264 0.174728E-02-0.961339E-03-0.594874E-06 0.177402E-05
 -1988.820  1279.863-0.177465E-02 0.219633E-02 0.309343E-06 0.251814E-05
    118.121 -1554.893 0.216157E-02 0.612947E-03-0.354522E-05 0.183121E-05

FILE 3:
Code:
  1195.921  -898.995 0.750312E-02-0.497526E-02 0.195382E-05 0.609417E-05
 -2021.287  1305.479-0.819754E-02 0.107572E-01 0.313018E-05 0.885066E-05

I need to extract this data so that result in another single file (call it result.txt) will be :
Code:
 0.750312E-02  0.174728E-02  0.750312E-02
-0.819754E-02 -0.177465E-02 -0.819754E-02
 0.990965E-02  0.216157E-02  0.990965E-02

I am truly newby with awk/perl,
Any helps are very much appriciated.

Gunk.
