Who has the oldest Kubota on this site?

[Corney]

I am beginning to think my Kubota is older than I initially thought after reading the list in another thread. They are saying the L1500 was imported from Japan between 1972-75.

Hard to determine I guess?

I'll be close to the top of that list with my 1972 L210.

Sweet tractor

I also have a Kubota L210. I am not sure what year. Maybe 1972? It is serial number 22123.

Also, it looks like the Fram 3600 and the Kubota oil filter are about the same, only difference is bypass pressure, Kubota is 22, Fram is around 12,,

Hi all,
I am in the State of Victoria ,Australia and have a Kubota L210 - 1972.
1972 was the first year Kubota was sold in Australia and was done so by the Mobilco machinery Company.My L210 still has the Mobilco decal on the grille.
Serial # 20983.
I bought the L210 after a 10 year search to find one .
I intend to restore it to display at Tractor Shows because it is rare and unusual.

My L245DT serial puts it as built in 1977. Certainly not the oldest tractor here.

I just traded my L245DT for a 97 L4200. Mine was either a 79 or 80. Loved that tractor, but it became too small. Shrunk I guess, kinda like my pants do.

Lots of machines of a previous vintage than myself being born in 88. Pretty cool stuff, and they can last longer than I will yet.

Serial number on my L210 is 21101. Pretty sure that's 1972.

The tractor has 330 hours on it, but the engine hours are unknown since I had to replace it with a used one. The tractor sat outside for a long long time, and the oil bath air cleaner rotted through the base of the oil pan, so I replaced that assembly with a Donaldson fabric air filter.

I have just got a L-210. Serial number 19820. All that came with it was a rear blade.

 

[lugbolt]

not I. Although I had to play with a bunch of the antiques while working for the dealer. Never fun either, trying to locate obsolete parts and such, and then having to explain to Mr. Customer that his equipment was too old for us to efficiently repair.

This thread is older than mine.
