You'd have to contact Ford to be certain, anyone could mock up an XR6 pretty easily. They have the badge on the glove box if they have a passenger air bag and on the dashboard if they don't. Fairmonts & Fairlanes don't have any badging and only Fairmonts & Fairlanes came from factory with the digital climate control but it could have been added in by someone.

Check out the brochure. Does it all look as it would have come from factory?

It looks like a EL XR6 with a EL Fairmont GHIA dash conversion

If it was a Fairmont it would have power windows, Fairmont Seats and Door trims

Only viewing from my phone so can't give you more details
