    The first thing you should do is pick up a basic automobile/hotrod wiring book. Check your local auto parts store, library or check (sorry, blatant site plug) http://www.clparts.com/hrmazon.html.

    Good luck,

    I would run a new wire from Battery Positive on the starter solenoid for your c/d player. The old Ford wiring was not designed to carry any amperage for the radio circuit.

    why not get a stereo for the truck, they sell them with AM/FM/tape, and an aux for a cd changer or what not.
