Lorenzo, None of the brackets are front brackets, for certain and I don't think any are rear brackets, either. Both, original 26-27 front and rear brackets, are two or more pieces that are riveted with large heavy duty rivets and I don't see anything that looks like that in your picture. Look at pictures in the supplier's catalogs. The reproductions are very faithful in shape to the originals.

You have an aftermarket bumper set on the car shown. A 26-7 bumper hsd open ends no bolt ties them together

Lorenzo, they may well be an aftermarket set for a T. They may or may not fit your '26. Just try fitting them up and see what you come up with. If they don't fit your '26, they might fit an earlier T. If they don't fit yours, try them on someone's earlier T if there is one handy. You may be able to sell them or work out a trade. There were many different bumpers made for T's, I think even for the '26-'27's that had factory bumpers available. Dave

Here's what they look like on my 27 coupe. I'm assuming they are a factory item...?

Thanks John.
These are some other parts that are in a box of stuff that came with the car.
The ones at the right apparently of malleable iron as the one has cracks in it.

My '21 Runabout had an aftermarket front bumper on it. I took it off when I rebuilt the engine. Here are a few photos of it off of the car, including the mounting brackets.
