Removing factory ac

Hey guys I’m new here and just bought my first mopar. Grew up around them but was just getting yelled at for not holding the light in the right place and never got to actually help cause I’d make it take longer or mess something up. So here I am hahaha

I want to remove the ac and all the hoses to clean up under the hood. It’s a 318 idk if that matters. Right now the ac doesn’t work and there is no belt on the ac pulleys. It looks like I can just unbolt and take the hoses from the ac to the fire wall of and be ok but I wanted to check first. I see the ac and the alternator are bolted together but was wondering if that’s just added support or if I need a different bracket? Or can I get by just using washers to fill the slack on the alternator. also the hoses that go to the fire wall when removed would I cover those holes?

Any help would be appreciated.
How about all the times you held the light right in his eyes (unintentionally of course) and got yelled at LOL? More times than I'd like to admit as a kid. But hey, we had to start somewhere!
