The 356 was used from 1940 through 1950 but be prepared to spend LOTS of money if you buy one that must be rebuilt! If you do find a good one not needing work, be sure to buy a Packard that used that engine originally as I believe the front chassis was longer to accommodate it but if not, the suspension was heavier to accommodate the extra weight.
