Looks like a 240 or 340 to me, due to the thin bumpers. This was a variation on the Mark 2

1967-68?

The model designations were tricky at that time

I'm not an authority

Cheers

It's likely to be a 340, because I don't think the 240 was exported to the USA. 240=2.4 litre engine, 340=3.4 litre engine. Photo seems to show something of a dog, but you won't know until a detailed examination is undertaken. If restoration is done on a DIY basis, you'd probably get your money back, (like I did in 1988 with a 2.4 Mark 2), but paying somebody to do it ? No !


Photos in your link show a non-Mark 2 dash, being that from a 420, I reckon. Hood lookd completely shot, so probably the rest of the car is too.Interior is shot, and its probably got a V8b lump in it.Not really worth anything at all, and the $2995 being asked is a con trick IMHO.

Would I have a Mark 2 back if I could - Yes, but I've nowhere to put it, unfortunately, and it wouldn't be that one !!
