I have an older Mac (Mac Pro 2.66 Dual Intel 13GB RAM) and need to add wireless capability. Is there a way to do this and if so how? I have an older Airport card but not sure if I can use it. Any help would be great! Thanks!!

I performed this operation on my Mac Pro last year. I have big hands and weak eyes, and it was maddeningly difficult. But I succeeded by perservering. With small fingers and sharp eyes, it should be a lot easier. You need to use the correct part, as linked by japamac above.
I installed an Airport Wireless card into a Mac Pro G5 a few years ago. It is fildly but straight forward and there are good guides on the web. The cards seem to be available on the web and from Amazon for around $25.
An alternative you might consider is a USB dongle that gives you wireless. You just plug them into a USB port on the back of the machine. Bluetooth ones are also available. This wireless dongle from Amazon claims to be compatible with OX10.4 and abouve. http://www.amazon.com/Bolse®-300Mbps-Wireless-N-Micro-Adapter/dp/B00DTZYHX4/ref= sr_1_2?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1388853982&sr=1-2
Good luck.
Can you add an Airport card to older MacPro?
