I made a small mistake. In 1915 Ford replaced the bulb horns with magneto powered horns which had a brass bell. The frame or engine may be 1927 leading to the confusion on what year the car is, but like I said before the car is pieced together.
This car is pieced together. All brass cars origionally had the wishbone above the axle while 1919 and later model T's had the wishbone under the axle which is a much safer design. The wheels are the only visable part of the car that would be correct for a 1927. The radiator, starting crank, headlamps, sidelamps, steeringwheel, coilbox, hood and firwall are all incorrect for 1927. The last year for the gas headlamps was 1914 but her style horn was not introduced until 1915.

That hood certainly looks 1915 or earlier, so do those kerosene lamps. I guess the wheels could be '27 though. Just had to point that out.
