<VV> Why "NO" Park ? ?

Right !  That's my point - those are the cars that DID have "Park" ...

The FRONT engine economy cars had "Park" but the REAR engine economy car
didn't, because they didn't want to spend the money.

I think the difference would have been too much for the buyers to bear
(probably about $5 at the time) ?
