I believe the Tbird was a 2 wire setup, I just bought a Shelby tail panel and buckets wires and they did not have the 6 pin connector, so thinking the seller sold me Tbird as Shelby, which is OK as I knew the wiring was stuffed anyway.

The Tbird 2 wire works all lights in tandem as on the GT/CS, but is due to how the wiring was setup, as the 6 pin also allowed the sequential for the Shelby as each wire to the turn curcuit was individual from the plug to the bulb in the 6 pin version.

In the 2 pin Tbird it was on-off for each complete circuit, brake or turn.

... I think....

I'm not a T-bird expert, or even reasonably knowledgable, but there's a good chance that the '64 Bird was a 2 wire harness and the '65 was six wire.
