You can put a set of AllParts threaded saddles on it, and look around for a set of '66 saddles. They pop-up from time to time. Biggest part of your project is the body, and I agree with the poster who suggested not doing anything until you get a couple of resto-pros to have a look. I don't think a pro insert and refinish on modded pickup routs will have a huge impact on the value of your '66. At least from what I've seen at the vintage guitar & collector shows.
