Datsun Bluebird R410

Datsun Bluebird SSS R411.In September 1963, Nissan brought the Bluebird up-to-date with boxier styling, apeing the more European designs being produced in the United States. A sporting model, the Bluebird SS, was launched in March 1964, with a tuned 1.2 L engine.

 

Initially, only a four-door sedan and five-door station wagon were in the range, but a two-door was added in September 1964. The two-door SS was launched in February 1965.

 

The base engine was enlarged to a 1.3 L unit in May 1965 and a 1.6 L SSS model was launched the same month. This began a line of famous Nissans in Japan, with the Bluebird SSS a mainstay of the range until its deletion in 2001.

 

To be more appropriately correct, the early DATSUNs imported to the U.S. were branded as "Datsun", not Nissan. Nissan was the manufacturer, Datsun the marque. An 'early' Datsun is effectively any Datsun made by Nissan prior to the 1968 model year, by U.S. standards. 'Early' would also include the Nissan Patrol, Nissan Silvia (made prior to 1968). Both the Bluebird and Silvia names were used after the 1968 model year was introduced, but were entirely different vehicles and don't belong in an 'early Datsun' category. 'Early' would also include the roadsters (SPL311, and SRL311, also known as 'Fairlady'), as well as the 520 and 521 pickup trucks, both of which were based entirely on pre-1968 models with little change. By the same token, the 'Bluebird' was not labeled thus in the U.S., but designated by the actual model: PL410, PL411, and RL411, along with certain earlier models. This addition more appropriately belongs on an "Early Datsun" or "Datsun 410/411 series" dedicated page.
