1909 GIZMO
Yes, a crank like gizmo on this magnificently restored 1909 Rolls Royce Silver Cloud with all of it's bright metal accoutrement shining brightly in the Connecticut overhead light, and there was plenty of polished brass and stainless sparkling on this classic. Then, there was this one, a crank like item, attached at the very back of the car near, or seemingly connected to the canvas roof on the rear of the car. Was it a "power roof" retractor, and, of course, that would be muscle power? Or, was it a rear, back seat driver ejection seat, maybe used to crank out the cranky, pesky mother-in-law? There was no one there to ask, but I'll assume it's the former.
