Probably going to have a good 288 and Ultramatic for sale

Last spring my neighbors tree fell and took out my garage, machine shop, and 2 of my classic cars. One of them was the 52 200Deluxe I was working on. The mechanical is all done and it was ready for paint. Unfortunately the tree, in addition to denting the roof, hood and both front fenders, also took out the windshield and side door glass. I was going to rebuild it (again!) but ran in to a 51 that will take much less work (and money!) I will take what parts I need off of the 52, then salvage the 52. I would hope that someone here can use the engine and transmission. I am in Omaha, Ne, not exactly a Packard hotbed!

I can use a motor and transmission. I have a trucker son who could help with shipping. Do you have a price in mind?

I want to start it up and make sure it is ok. It did smoke somewhat until I would take it out on the interstate. Got up to 60 and a big cloud came out-then nothing. Not sure what that was about-maybe valves? I also want to take off the parts I need and then just sell the entire car as I am not set up to remove the engine and tranny. It will be a few weeks before I can get it out of storage and over to the house. The chassis and suspension was also gone through in the last 5 years-not driven much since. I will post a picture and reply when I get it over to the house.
