Stuck in park
I was wondering if anyone else has had problems with getting their car out of park and if so what the fix was? I have a 73 automatic. I just bought the car, had it flat bedded home. Went to back it up in the drive way, which is at a slight slant, the car stalled, started it back up and the shifter is locked in park. I tried to rock it alittle, trying to remove some pressure off the pin but was not successful. That and I was hoping that my wife would not run over me as I was rocking forward and she was trying to get it into reverse. I did not have any problems with it in the earlier two weeks. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks

The only time I have seen one stuck in park...is on a hill. yep, gotta rock her to get it unstuck. I know this is stupid to ask, but did she have the reverse "lock out" thing pressed while trying to get it unstuck?
