The newest car that I've had that had a crank was
a 1958 VW pickup,
although the U.S. models stopped in the early 50s. But the parts were
I am pretty sure that UK Land Rovers had the starting handle at least
until the late 1970s... The series 3 workshop manual shows the special
dog bolt anyway.
The starting handle makes some maintenance jobs (setting the valve
clearances and the static ignition timing, for example) a lot easier too...
