The Datsun 1300 Saloon, produced from 1968 to 1972, was a compact sedan that represented a significant step in Datsun's rise to global prominence. Positioned above the smaller Datsun 1200, the 1300 featured a larger, 1.3-liter four-cylinder engine that delivered a peppy performance for its time. The engine, codenamed A13, was known for its reliability and fuel efficiency, boasting a power output of around 77 horsepower. The car's design incorporated a classic, boxy silhouette, with a distinctive chrome grille and a spacious interior that could comfortably accommodate five passengers. The 1300 Saloon was available in a variety of trims and options, including a deluxe version with added features like vinyl upholstery and a padded dashboard.

The Datsun 1300 Saloon was a popular choice for both private buyers and fleet operators. Its affordability, practicality, and decent performance made it a compelling alternative to European rivals like the Ford Cortina and Vauxhall Viva. The car's success contributed to the growing popularity of Japanese automobiles in international markets. However, the 1300 Saloon's production was ultimately discontinued in 1972, paving the way for newer, more advanced Datsun models. Despite its limited production run, the 1300 Saloon remains a significant part of Datsun's legacy, representing the brand's commitment to producing affordable, reliable, and well-engineered vehicles. The Factory Service Repair Manual for the 1300 Saloon, now a valuable collector's item, provides detailed information on the car's mechanics, maintenance procedures, and troubleshooting techniques, serving as a crucial resource for owners and enthusiasts dedicated to keeping these classic vehicles on the road.
