Are these shocks correct for a 6/65 289 coupe?  Thank you.

Not the correct numbers, but would probably work until some better suited ones come around.  You most likely would be looking for C5ZF shocks, with a suffix appropriate to how your car was equipped.

Thank you; I'm still learning and not afraid to ask.  I'll keep looking for a pair of C5ZF's.

definately not correct for your application,  but the attaching hardware is nice and could be used on the correct shocks once found.

i have a few pairs of front C5ZF application but think the dates are early 1966, which may not be what your looking for.
