Having an original and legible patent plate would aid in proving the "model year" car with the assistance of any one of a number of Packard-origin documents. But of course your 1948 could also be a 1949 if you have a -9- inserted between the body type and production sequence #.

Should the patent (VN) plate be missing, the Briggs body number could serve the same purpose.

As to actual "build date", LOL without the build slip.
