the $20+ originals. These adapters are a one-time purchase!!
These are original military adapters for use in this application.
We had to make one small modification to make them work for
your truck. In stock and ready to go.

On the Cover:
Kyle Roloson and his father Allan (left and
center) saved a 1941 G-506 from a slow death of rotting away
in the mountains of Pennsylvania. The truck needed everything,
from engine work to major body fabrication. More than 700
hours over two years went into the restoration. Read the full
story on page 20.
