All Late Model Mustangs have an alternator, but earlier ones have a single driven belt to the alternator, while later cars (90's) have a serpentine belt that not only runs the alternator, but other accessories such as your Power Steering pump and air conditioning compressor.
Early Mustangs such as the 1964 1/2 cars and early 1965 Mustangs had a generator and separate belt. See www.onlymustangfords.com/classic-mustang.html

Does a 2000 Ford Mustang 3.8 V6 have a timing belt or timing chain?
The vehicle has a timing chain that keeps the camshaft spinning correctly relative to the crankshaft. It also has a serpentine belt (what used to be known as fan belts) that operates the AC compressor, alternator, air pump, and water pump. Some people still call serpentine belts a timing belt even though it has no effect on engine timing. Many 4 cylinder engines use a timing belt in place of a chain. I think this is where the confusion starts.
