Wow! What an amazing collection of parts. You must have been collecting this stuff for quite a while.
Based on your eco-boost build I didn't think a concourse restoration was your cup of tea, but if you want to add a factory AC compressor mount that will work with the early style power steering mount, the part number is C6SA 2882-A. The T-bird had an idler pulley built into the power steering bracket that is not on the non a/c cars (and of course trucks). The dealer installed compressor mount is different and was fabricated from steel plate. There was also a unique tensioner pulley arrangement that mounted directly above the water pump on the dealer installations. It was easier for me to find factory T-bird stuff than correct dealer installed pieces.

And yep been collecting NOS parts for over 18 years. Grille, Dash pad, bumpers and so many more now near impossible parts to find at what were really good prices.
Since I have a factory 1966 427 Balancer it makes it that much more difficult for AC add

Is there something different about the 1966 427 balancer that it won't take the 3-bolt add-ons? I have a C1AE-6A312-D which is a single sheave that bolts onto the front or the C4SZ-6A312-B (Marked C5AE-D) is a 3 sheeve pulley that bolts "around" the balancer. You lose the one balancer pulley but get 3 in its place. Timing marks are repeated on the pulley.
I'm digging your parts - the dash bezel insert piece with the speedometer numbers on it must be a reproduction from the look of it. The argent silver is missing from around the gauge openings for Fuel and Temp.
I REALLY like the dash harness....

This is a pretty early truck for 1966.
Having 63, 64, 65, and various build date 66 cabs I had not realized the differences in cab sheet metal from year to year. Big changes each year.

Windshield wiper motor wiring? Is that for one of the older trucks? My wiper motors in the '66s - all 2 speed - have the wiring harness as part of the motor and use a different connector at the switch with the half-moon shape to it.
School me on what you've got going on....
