In an apparatus for parking vehicles in vertically arranged pairs, there is provided a base frame including two spaced stanchions. Each stanchion includes a generally vertically extending portion secured to the base frame at the lower end thereof, and with the upper end of the stanchion being inclined at an acute angle of approximately 12 DEG to the vertical. Each stanchion incorporates an elongated guide for slidably receiving a slide associated with a platform that is dimensioned to receive a vehicle, and which is elevated between a generally horizontal, lowered position to a slightly inclined elevated position by a hydraulic actuator in order to elevate the platform to enable a second vehicle to be parked beneath the platform. In the elevated position of the platform, the vehicle is prevented from rolling off the platform by engagement of one set of tires with a chock disposed on the platform, and by virtue of the inclination of the platform. The specific configuration of the stanchion insures that the elevated platform is disposed at the proper angle for preventing the vehicle from rolling off the elevated platform.
