i can't make out anything from your picture
could be as simple as changed bonnet for some reason, or it was added by the previous owner.
the Fairmont Ghia's didnt get the bonnet emblem, that was a Fairlane Ghia thing.
Better/bigger pictures would help us being able to determine whats done to it

meh, I would say whoever owned it before liked the "prestigeous" look and had it put on there by his dealer. Some old people are like that....
