Subject: [CR]fuji special road racer year identification

i bought a fuji special road racer a little while ago, and i've been wondering what year it was made. i admit that i am a beginner cycling enthusiast, so perhaps there is an easy answer to this question, but i havent seen a marking or indication of a manufacturing year on the bike at all. is there some other way to find out the year? i cant seem to find a serial number either. but maybe i just dont know where to look, heh.

the following is a web-page showing pictures of the bike. please let me know if there might be a better picture of some part that can help with the identification. but i hope these do the trick. and the web-page is host on my university's web-space, in case you were concerned about the legitimacy of the link.

thank you for your help,

PS - and in addition to the year, i am interested in finding out the most information i can regarding the bike. so if anyone knows where i can find detailed specifications, that would be great!
