The Bendix system was apparently phased out some 50 years ago and
replaced by an overrunning clutch design.
Do you work on a lot of engines? The Bendix is alive and healthy.

Nope - the genuine "bendix" style drive is pretty well limited to
things like snow-blowers etc with 120 volt starters. Virtually ALL
automotive starters use pre-engage starters with over-running
clutches, Don't know when I last saw an actual Bendix style drive on
an automobile - but it goes back to the seventies at least.
