6 lug to 5 lug adapter or redrill?

I want to end up with a 5 lug bolt pattern on the rear axel of my 60 Chevy, to match the 5 lug pattern I will get when I bolt up a 79 GMC front end under the 60. Does anyone make an adapter to go from 6 to 5 lug? Or is redriling the only way?

its easier to make it all six lug.i believe aim industries has the six to five adapter,but you will need wheels with a lot of inset to clear the fenders.

Do an e-Bay search for wheel adapters. Keep in mind that the adapters will effect the back spacing of your wheel choice.
