If the key goes in and won't turn, it's not parking lock, it's the steering wheel lock. The locks on the older cars take a bit of turning to engage, much more than just a few inches like newer cars. However, the method of disengagement is the same. If you come to the car and stick the key in and it won't turn, turn the wheel a little bit more the direction it is turned (like an inch, maybe), this releases the tension from the locking mechanism to let you turn the key to start the car.
