1947 Chevrolet Fleetmaster trunk handle
I have a problem with my trunk handle after I got it chromed. When I turn the handle, the small shaft does not turn. I have been told that it cannot be welded because the top is pot metal and the shaft is steel. Maybe it can be braised! We tried putting a pin in, but it did not hold. I tried gluing with airplane glue, but it did not hold. I believe these handles are similar for 1942-1948.
See pictures on my website:

Any ideas??
Thanks,
Bob

Nice photos on your link. I have no helpfull answer but I'm sure someone should chime in!" "No matter where you go, there you are!" Steve.
Ditto on the model kits! My best were lost when the Hobby Shop burned under suspicious circumstances....
