Admittedly, I am a rookie to this 1981 Caddy....

With that said, I want to hook up an original radio with the wiring from an 1990s radio that has been taken out. I was a ugly Kenmore.

Can you tell me from the wire colors (original Radio to be installed) where they go??

The second bundle of wires is from the Kenmore radio that is being taken out where they would connect the the wiring from the original radio??

Thanks for any kind of help!

The original had one speaker so you should have positive, red usually, negative, and speaker positive and speaker negative. If you are going to make it one speaker it's pretty easy if you are putting the stock radio in.
