Question:
Thanks for getting back to me Jon, if I'm not mistaken the plug you shared is for the 12 volt lights , same as if you were pulling a trailer, the plug I'm asking about is on the side of the camper and is just for the 110 power coming into the camper. I have attached a picture of the plug. Thanks again Ps I think you might be correct about just rewiring a new modern plug into it.

It sounds like you may have a connector on your truck bed camper that's similar to a hookup for a dryer. If that's the case we definitely don't have any adapters for it and you'll likely have a hard time finding one so rewiring it to a modern-style connector would be more beneficial and for that I recommend checking out the Pollak RV 7-Blade Plug End Socket w/Mounting Bracket # PK12-704. This gives you a modern 7-Way socket and plug so both your truck and camper connections will match.
