Re: 53 Cavalier Self-Parker

That Cavalier is currently at the Frick mansion in Point Breeze - a suburb of Pgh. The mechanism was installed on the Packard - not developed by them. Memory says that same mechanism was also installed in a Caddy, approx the same year but I don't have any facts to back that up. It does work - allowing you to pull the front end into a parking place and then by use of the mechanism, swing the rear end into place. Parallel parking is a lost art and I could envision some witless driver swinging the rear end into a parking meter and damaging the rear quarter. It was ingenious, but unnecessary.
