On a 47 unless you are lucky enough to find a build slip, the codes will not be anywhere on the car. If a slip has survived, the most common places they have been found is taped on top of the glove box or folded and inserted between the gas tank fill and vent pipes a few inches below the gas door. Most have not survived and those that do are extremely fragile. There were some other places lucky souls have found them -- under the back seat and sometimes under a carpet, one was found inside a door and another between the rear seat and fender well. Seems like Packard line workers were sometimes not terribly consistent with placement.
