Nash used to use a stomp-start type switch operated by a tab on the clutch pedal. As the pedal came close to the floorboard, the last inch or so of pedal travel actuated the starter solenoid. I think there was also a vacuum-operated safety switch in the carburetor that prevented the solenoid from engaging with the engine running
