Welcome to the club, I am not sure how much info this site has about 280ZX but check out www.zhome.com, lots of good Z info there. I believe 82-83 280ZX had a small hood scoop infront of the drivers side. Other than that... erm.. If it is a Turbo it will be years 81-83. Or if it has multiple colors (gold/black or red/black) it may be years 79 or 80.

Just open up the driver's door and look at the data plate on the door jamb. If, by some chance, it's not there post the vin/serial number located on the dash or stamped into the firewall (center of the firewall behind the valve cover)

The plate on the jamb will tell you the month and year your car was produced...
