The Starduster collided with a parked and unoccupied Piper, while taxiing into a parking spot. While attempting to line the Starduster up with the parking line, the pilot was looking off the left wing. The right interplane-strut of the Starduster collided with the Piper's nose spinner. The propeller of the Starduster then made contact with the other airplane's right wing. The pilot noted no mechanical problems with his airplane.
Probable Cause: the pilot's inadequate visual lookout resulted in his failure to maintain clearance from the parked airplane.
