does it have injection or carburator? when I was a kid, my dad adapted his Skoda 100 for hand cranking, but it was old-fashioned carburated engine with spark distributor.
As far as I remember, it also kicked hard so he started the car by hand only when batttery was too weak to power the starter.

Beside that, hand cranking mod shoul be relatively easy. you just need socket (preferably ratchet type) bolted to a crankshaft, handle with two pins at the end and thats all...
