When I turn on the key, while the key is in the crank position, I have power to these, and I can see the radio ON, when i release the key to on after the car is started the power goes away. It has just come back on when getting down the road a bit, and its fine, seems to mostly do it in the morning. fuses are good.

any ideas?

There was a FREE recall on Ford ignition switches. They overheat and sometimes catch fire. That burns up the steering column and sometimes the car interior. Since this is very old information, you may not be able to get the switch replaced for free anymore. The auto parts stores sell the switches for $13-$15.

Saleen0679 was nice enough to dig this up for us awhile back: Replace a 1979-1993 Ignition Switch Assembly
