I noticed the rad support bolts too, the rad support is probably off the 60-61 just like the inner fenders, this would account for the misplaced horn, regulator, and no w/s reservoir.
I am using a 61 rad support in my crew cab, and these are all things that I have to address to get it to work with 66 components.

60-61 the rad bolted to the side of the support, which is why there are no bolts in the 66 part of the support, also the 60-61 had a generator system, and a different size voltage regulator which mounts different, which is probably why it is on the inner fender. on my 61 the washer reservoir is on the firewall, all my later trucks have it on the front left by the horn.
