    The chains and weights drive the movement.
    AF might be along soon to tell you how to set it up.

    There should be a girl in a swing hanging on the hook that comes through the base. Try searching "German Weather House Swinging Girl Clock".

    Thanks for the input everyone. Bought the clock for 15 sold it for 30. Did some further researched found similar ones from the era in top notch condition for like 60 bucks. The person who bought it likes to work on cuckoo clocks and repair them so all in all a win for everyone.
