Besides the instrument lights, there are a set of map lights on either side the control panel (see the 2 openings above the headlight switch, starter button, lighter, key, "cruise control" hand throttle) that come on if you twist the panel light control all the way to the right (the knob where the red overdrive light is). There's a light in the glove box attached to the clock. But I like your idea, Something in the back would be good, too.

Check out the Controls and Instruments section of the Owners Manual.https://www.packardinfo.com/xoops/html/downloads/1940Packard160and180OwnersManual.pdf
