Eric -
It will be nice to see the bits and pieces once you get into the clock.

Here are some of the bits and pieces. It was actually in really good shape
before it was shipped. The suspension was correct and the pendulum timed right at 8 bpm. It probably would have run. There is some damage on closer inspection that could have been severe, but everything seems to work like it should.
The mainspring was wound, so when the plates separated, after bouncing around unprotected, the barrel spun against the first wheel a couple of times knocking the tops off driving side of every tooth. Luckily none are seriously bent or broken and the first wheel pinion is ok. The teeth slowed the barrel enough to prevent the spring hook from getting pushed out and bulging the side of the barrel. I should be able to salvage it.
The only other damage came at the hands of some repair person in the clock's history. On almost all of the case mounted Hauck clocks I've recorded the plate pillars are mounted with the screws to the back and the pins on the front. This one was no exception until someone reversed them. To allow the dial to fit, Hauck cut them down just past the hole for the pins.
When you reverse them the dial won't fit so people do things like this:
"I know it fit when it came apart!" This person probably has lots of parts left over when they get finished.
The minute hand is a poor replacement, and the hour hand has a strange bend to it though it looks original.
The dial bezel cleaned up nicely with nothing but a little work with an old tooth brush.
I'm going the clean the polishing residue from the case and clean the movement, but I won't refinish it at this time. That's all for now.
