There are factory brackets around to covert to elec start. They really are not hard to start if everything is in good working order. My '42 A will start on the first fly almost every time. Sometimes on the second if I cant open the choke fast enough. My advice to you is, see how good it starts by hand. If it don't, or if you find its too much for you to handle starting it by hand, maybe look for a slant dash A with factory electric start. They are not rare by any means. As I said earlier, you can find the bracket to put a starter on the one your looking at. Then you will need to change fan shaft to a pulley style to run a genny or alternator. Also need a place to put the battery. One I put together a few years ago, I changed the rockshaft housing so a battery box seat would bolt on. Its a lot of work, there are a lot of good factory elec start A's left to be had, I would look for one of those. Just my 2 cents.
