Hi Diana,

I did consider the starting handle, but the hole in the chassis cross
member seems on the large side for just a starting handle, as if it was
planned to fit some sort of PTO at a later date. 

I don't think any of the Rover cars had capstan winches fitted to them
- they were intended for the more 'well heeled' motorist! They would
have had a hole for the starting handle though. 

Cheers

I wonder if the hole in the front cross member was for the engine hand
crank
starting handle?  (or what ever is it's proper scientific taxonomy!)

Was there also a capstan winch for Rover 75 and 90 cars in the 1950's
which
had a similar hole in the grille and radiator?
