Looking to identify two engine starting cranks. The longer one is 30" long x 7" offset and 5-1/2 handle. The shorter one is 14" long x7-1/2" offset and a 5" handle with a wheel nut socket on one end. I am hoping the shorter one is correct (or usable) for my 32. The longer one I will sell when identified.

@steve-d Steve, the short crank is typical of those supplied with Model A Fords. Chevrolet might have used them also. If it is a Ford, the lug nut size will be 13/16". Chevrolet would likely be 3/4". I hope this helps. I have about 20 starting cranks and I don't know the correct application for any of them.

@steve-d I should have mentioned that the long crank is much like the one that came with my 1936 1-1/2 ton Chevy truck. I believe it is representative of what was supplied with all Chevys of that time period. I think the length varied with specific applications but the idea of extending the crank out past the bumper was characteristic across all models.

@35mike Your info is helpful as I measured and the socket end is a little over 3/4" so probably a Model A crank. Might be easier to find a home for it in that case.
