Will calipers and rotors off of a 1995 Mustang GT fit on a 1965 Fastback Mustang?

As far as the front rotors go I am seeing that as a no. I compared the two Bendix rotors at summit racing, one being 276 mm in diameter and the other is 287 mm.

The calipers on the 1965 appear to be dual piston but on the 1995 are single piston, so again, that would be a no.

I would have to say yes, because it would basically be a 1994 with a 1965 body.
