Anyone know about Kubota L3502 tractors?

[rbargeron]

Noticed a Kubota L-3502 on eBay that must be a grey market tractor - wondered if somebody here knows about it. A Google search on "Kubota L-3502" brings several mentions of Daedong and DAEDONG/KUBOTA. The rig in the picture below has bright blue paint like the early Kioti's - and its front sheet metal doesn't look like any Kubota models I'm aware of. Anybody know about associated Kubota-Kioti model(s)?

Hi Todd

Thanks for the link - no L3502 on that list - but there is a L3602

P.S. maybe you could edit your link to remove one of the "http://" s

Kubota started to build their "economy tractors" I believe in the early or mid-nineties; the sheet metal showing on the L3502 is the same as the domestic Kubotas here (L2600/L3000). The L2600 had 27 hp. and the L3000 was 32.1 with a 3 cylinder 91.5 cu. in engine. Manual trans. only with 8 FWD/ 2 REV. The L3000 had std. power steering.

The pics below show a lot of differences -

This is the Kubota L2600/L3000

This is the sheet metal closeup from the eBay L3502

And here's a Daedong L3502

Info from the net indicates the eBay L3502 is one of the Daedong/Kubota tractors made during a brief joint venture back in the '80s.

Now just to add to the head scratching over the "joint venture" aspect, check out this picture of a Daedong L4350 - it sure looks like a Kubota L4350 !!
