Sure do look like T's Dave. Might want to take side measurements from a T's width.

Dave, they may fit a T, but they are not the style/shape that was offered by Ford in 1926/27. If they had been they would have already found a ride home in the back of my pickup. Later, hope to catch up with you when the heat and humidity are more to the liking of an old guy. Joe

Factory T Ford bumpers had open ends on the outer end. Any spring with rolled ends and a bolt through them is not a Ford bumper. That said, they could well be an accessory set for a T.

Thanks for the help all !!
Alan, The front bumper doesn’t have the ends connected...
I will get a measurement and compare to a frame Hank.
