Re: V-belt for 1947 356

On my 1950 Packard 288 I had an old belt that fit barely (stretched due to age I guess) and a new one that was too short by a small amount. I just went to Napa with the old belt and said I wanted the next size longer. They gave me one that fit, but it is the cogged type. I suggest Napa because they are handy and the price was less than the repro that doesn't look original. I would love to get a belt that was the old solid construction however, just for the original appearance. I do not know if they make that solid type anymore.
