All of the 4 cylinder Cadillacs were RHD. In 1915 they changed to LHD as standard & introduced the V8 engine.
On the starter, in 1912 Cadillac was the first to offer an electric starter as standard equipment . Most cars had provision for a hand crank up to WWII & some beyond. (Ladas came with a crank in the 1980s.) Early batteries were not very reliable.
