Is there a chassis number stamp on '36 1402's and if so where is it?

I can't say for sure on a Packard of that era but typically Packards did not have chassis numbers stamped on them.

Not sure what you mean by "chassis number". Post 1931 Packards with factory coachwork or factory sponsored series-custom coachwork would carry a vehicle number in the format of body type - sequential number, this would be stamped on the patent plate and identified as a vehicle number. Those that had an actual chassis number plus sequential number stamped on the patent plate were cases where the unit of sale by the factory was a chassis minus coachwork sold for completion by a coachbuilder, for example to LeBaron, Dietrich, Brunn, Henney, etc.

If its of any assistance to you, a frame number (not a chassis number) should be found stamped on the frame just above the trunnion block. I believe this practice was discontinued after the 14th Series.
