Default Wagon - XR or Fairlane, what's your poison?

Good evening my fellow AU brethren.

I'm going to embark on an AU station wagon journey in the near future, however I need to decide which direction to head.

The vehicle in question isn't in my possession yet, but it will be an AU station wagon.
Preferably an AU2 or AU3, however that's not mandatory as one which may be coming my way is an AU1.

The state of the car isn't particularly important right now, as I have a plan for it.

This is where you guys come in.

I also have 2 donor cars here, an AU2 XR6, and an AU3 Fairlane Sportsman Ghia.
Both of these cars are for the most part complete, but not roadworthy.

My plan is to convert the yet to be acquired AU wagon into either a fully fledged XR, or Fairlane. When I say fully fledged, I know this still won't be the genuine article, however to me it will be.

Really it's just the interior, dash, and front panels that will be changed, but that's still a reasonable enough task for a couple weekends.

My question to you is, what do you feel would be more unique/desirable?

I have my preference, I'd like to know yours.

Ideally the colour will be liquid silver, as the 2 donor cars are, and it will be an I6.
It will receive some minor mods such as extractors, exhaust, etc, but nothing major.
This will basically be as if it went down the line at Ford.

Please cast your vote and leave thoughts.


Edit - I should point out, that whichever way this goes, all the components from the respective donor car, will be fitted.
Front end, seats, dash, door trims, engine, ECU, BEM, etc.
As said above, I'll make this as Ford intended, not some dodgy half hearted conversion.
