Engine installed in the chassis. Manifolds, starter, oil line, crank and all the other bits installed.
Next step is the rear axle has to come out and be inspected.

Does this car have an electric starter or hand crank only?

Shawn needs to give you a good answer but that looks like a starter on the left side of the engine shot.

One of the modifications I made was to add electric start. 1911 was too early to be original but since the transmission was out, all the bits to add a starter could be added relatively easily.
