If i wanted to put a radio in a model a ford 1930 having a 6 volt positive to ground type auto where would I find a radio for it and how would i have to hook it up.? or maybe a cd player would be easier?
I am asking you because I have very little knowledge of radio/electronics.?

Josh if you plan on leaving it 6 volts any car or truck radio up to early 50s will be 6 volt positive ground. The early radios are physically larger than the ones near the 50s.

Al, there were some recent posts on the early v8 forum by folks looking for someone to fix their radio. I suggested they send you a PM, however, they said they could not get in touch with you via PM or email. Maybe he did finally contact you. Wish we had a vendor contact page/or listing here on the new Fordbarn like we had on the old Fordbarn.
