Yep that's a real hub! Was a set on a kit of bits T37 in France a couple of years ago did you buy it? |

I bought some 37 parts with hubs years ago . But this is a complete 37 and I must replace the hub , condition is to bad . Most original hubs are too bad to use , only found 2 good ones . |

However yes I have done something similar when I had two RH hubs and wanted one of each. I welded up the threaded portion and remachined the other hand. This was twenty years ago and the car is still driving as far as I know. |

I believe this Bugatti hubs are not high quality steel like a chrome moly , it is this normal ad3 about 70 kg steel . So welding is no problem . |
