When trying to connect my radio I noticed that there is no speaker wire coming from the radio itself. Where is it located ? Can I go inside and make this connection or do I need an expert? Thanks, Bert

On the stock radio, the speaker connection is a small round affair located on the top or bottom. It is an RCA jack, similar to what you'd find on the back of a home stereo unit.

If its the same as the AM radio on my 59 its on the bottom like Justin said and it looks like the center pin of a rca male jack this is the plus lead for the speaker and the body of the truck was used for the ground side of both speaker and radio.In other words you should only have one wire (+) running under the dash and up the passenger side post to the speaker above the windshield.
