In 1948, IMHO, there would have been a ROD all the way from the balljoint at the carb to the choke knob in the dashboard.
If your setup has a CABLE involved, I'll bet someone has been "creative", and it's NOT OEM.
It would be NO big deal to make an adapter to connect a cable to the choke arm.
I recently did a similar project to connect a throttle cable to the carb on an SBC I installed in place of a Dorf flatty in a 1953 F6.
If you can't otherwise solve the problem, contact me, I'd enjoy whipping up an adapter for your project.
