Some Model T's under the right conditions are self starters.  If the engine
stops at the correct place, and if there is still fuel vapor in they cylinders
from when it was stopped, It is not uncommon to light off the coils, and when
you slide the advance back, the timer will fire off a cylinder and the engine
will start.  No starter, no hand crank.  It can't have set too long from
running as the gas mixture is gone.
