Congratulations to Migginsbros, and a heartfelt well done to everyone else who participated, this was a close race right down to the wire.
As always, it is hard to pick just one.

It should work for both Douglas and Packard pin connectors, as they appear to be identical. I have found that a Douglas pin, with the metal shroud not in the way, will plug directly into the Packard socket. I haven't looked closely at the Douglas socket side to see how they compare.

There should be a code printed on it (usually in tiny lettering) that will identify it's size and type, number of pins, etc. You can then look it up on the web and find matching parts. Attached is an example with the code...
Planning your stops further back only works when you don't have to try an unplanned stop.
Think about liability. If you get in a serious collision, one of the first questions you'll hear in the lawsuit is "So, you removed part of the vehicle's stock brake system??"
