Hotchkiss M-201 starting crank

Post by cjv-35 » Sat Jul 06, 2013 3:33 pm

I have a starting crank that has a spring where you put your hand on it to turn it and his "francais" engraved on it. Is this an M-201 original type factory hand crank as I believe it is? Thanks for any reply.

hi ,

yes the hand crank with a spring handle is indeed a french one .
If you look closely to it you will found the number stamped on it , it's begining by G503 - XXXXXXXX

Cheers Alex :)

Sorry, it is not for sale. It adorns the rear panel on my 45 GPW.
