Antique auto starter (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

crank

(Other definitions for crank that I've seen before include "Eccentric - starting handle" , "Turn (engine handle); eccentric" , "Wind (up) - oddball" , "Person with strange and often aggressive ideas" , "Person of eccentric habits" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
