There are two names that pop up when I see that picture.
And they are Bristol and Bertone.
But that would surely be a daft combination.

But it isn't either of them so you don't need to worry!

This vehicle is from Ford's Ghia Operations division in Turin, Italy.  Unfortunately, I do not know its name.

You are right, but I'm afraid I need its name for that point!

We've already established that it's a Ford from Ghia's studios, but I'm afraid its name is not 'Ancona'.

Maybe this was meant to be an Australian Ford, perhaps a Falcon/Fairmont Coupé?

Maybe or maybe not, I don't know!
But it did have a specific name and nothing to do with Falcon or Fairmont (don't forget it was based on the European Granada).
