Nice!

Starting one of those with a hand-cranked pony is like nothing else. My uncle had an early 50s D6. We went to use it one day and could not find the crank. He told me "go get the 3/4 drive socket set". He selected a socket and put it on the handle. Turned the pony just where he wanted it. Pulled the handle and she (the pony) was running. Great memory.
