ABSTRACT:
A vehicle anti-theft parking space device including a vertically slideable post telescopingly received in a receptacle base securely mounted underground from ground level in a driveway and the like so that the post can be raised and locked in the raised position above ground level by a padlock to prevent unauthorized movement of a vehicle parked on the driveway. A spring mechanism is disposed between the post and the receptacle base to maintain the post in the raised position in a vertical alignment with the receptacle base. A hasp is pivotally mounted within the post so that the hasp can freely pivot through a slot in the post into a horizontal position extending outwardly from the post, and secured in the horizontal position by the padlock so that the post cannot be lowered into the receptacle base. The hasp is pivoted back into the post, when the padlock is removed, as the post is being lowered into the receptacle base. A handle is provided for pulling the post up to the raised position. Retainment members are provided on the receptacle base for securing the receptacle base in the ground. A stop is provided to prevent the post from being pulled out of the receptacle base. Preferably, the post is an elongated square shaped hollow member, and the receptacle base is an elongated rectangular shaped hollow member.
