Updating the stereo - -65 sedan

I've got no experience installing car stereos so I'm wondering how difficult this would be to do myself (as far as wiring everything, etc.). I imagine it would be expensive to take it to a shop and have it done professionally. Can anyone point me to a site that might have good instructions on doing ...

Modern stereo, 78 MKV

I'd like to put in a cd player and speakers in my Mark V, but still keep the old 8track and radio in place. I guess I'm looking for a trunk cd changer. Is there a way to hook up both the old radio and new cd changer to play out of the speakers? Or is it one or the other? I just don't want to remove ...

engine having trouble shutting off, 78 MKV

I guess it doesn't diesel for a full 10 seconds... that was just a bad estimation. It's more around 4-5 seconds, but maybe that's still long. It doesn't do this every time I shut it off--maybe once a week or not even that often.

engine having trouble shutting off, 78 MKV

This doesn't happen all the time, but every now and then when I park and shut off the engine, it will rumble for about 10 seconds or so and then turn off. What could be causing that?

Removing 8track player, HELP

The problem is, that movie isn't released until the 21st of December. I just can't wait that long to have my 8-track fixed. I know Meth and Red will do quite a number on my piece, but I gotta get this done right quick, son.

Removing 8track player, HELP

Thanks for the info....

I've tried cleaning it from the front, but there is just too much in there. Taking it apart will let me get to all the little spots.

So I need to unscrew all the bolts and everything from the back of the radio and then it slides out the front right?
