1973 TT, Propane Connection Issue

I have a 43 year old TT. The propane connector is a small male connector. I need to get an adapter or something to get the new style propane tank installed. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

there has been several revisions to the propane systems in 30 years..

might be easier to replace with today's style.

the fittings... the 80 percent Full rule... safety valves...

Smarter people will be long soon.

If it was my trailer I would removes the male connector and take it to my local Ace Hardware and let them figure it out. My local one is pretty good about this.

I would just put a new regulator on there with a hose that's not 43 yrs old.
