From what is seen, it's not easy to say which one it is... Nevertheless, since it's identified as a Junior Z, all the period press and sales material (as well as its badges), never mention the GT 1300 in its name. |

My info is that 1300 had claphand wipers as here, and 1600 had parallel. The source is indirect though - from Spark 1-43 models - and the differences between their 2 versions (as well as the wipers, there were changes to fuel filler position and rear lights). The first version (1300) would not have had a reason to identify engine size at that stage - only became relevant 2 years later when 1600 launched, so 1300 a retrospective part of the name. |

Both 1300 and 1600 models had "claphand" wipers. From what is seen on the main pic, only the steering wheel would tell (1600 Junior Z received a wood one instead of the Junior Z's black). The bumpers would also help to identify them. |
