Fender and hood swapping for 83 280ZXT 2 + 2

Hi, I'm getting ready for body work and paint, so I need a hood and right front fender. Some sellers are telling me "hey, I've only got 81 or 82 hoods", and I don't know for sure if they differed. Someone told me only the 83 Turbos had larger vents in the hoods, and I'm still not sure if any year non 2 + 2 will fit my 2 + 2!

Anyone?

Thanks

John

The hood and fron frenders from all the ZXT's should interchange. I don't think datsun changed that part of the car from a 2+2 to the Coupe.

 

Also, all the turbos had larger hood vents than the N/A's, and from my observations, many of the 82-83 N/A's had the large vents also.

 

The front valence on a turbo car has three slits on the passenger's side in front of the tire to allow air to flow through the oil cooler.

 

82-83's also had different bumpers (no chrome), different tail lights (stripes), and a slightly different grill under the front bumper.
