@BellsFarming Yes, I'm in South Paris. I've been here for almost 40 years. I drive through your area whenever I go to LLBeans. I'll certainly stop at the store next time I make it through there.
Excellent job Molly Shane and crew 👏 not a swear word or trapped finger either 🤣 the hood looks fantastic,far better than the old beaten up one,it will look even better with the decals on it,,👍😊🚜 UK 🇬🇧
"she's a beaut Clark" Nice job guys, that looked like a heavy hood! Not looking forward to the storm tomorrow...at least it's warm so it won't stick around long!

All you youngsters watching this video, did you see Shane hand over the knife in the correct way when he was cutting a strap to Molly. If you ever really want to clean the seat upholstery, I've been using a product called Tuff Stuff for a few years, found it in South Hill, Va. I mean it pulls out so much stuff I never imagined would be in those seats! Great video!
Good house keeping , a clean tractor is a pleasure to operate . I am a 4450 and 4455 kind of guy , later a 7810 . All the plastic in my humble opinion was not JDs best idea. Keep up the good work .
My grandfather had a little John Deere lawnmower that was his pride and joy. I guess when he drove it he felt like he was driving something more like yours. I got into such trouble one time for putting it away dirty after using it to move some stuff around his orchard, he was so upset I got dirt all over the foot rests and back end. After that I made sure to keep it clean. I don’t blame him for being upset, he built a nice retirement home on 5 acres with an orchard and garden that gave the whole family many wonderful memories. My grandmother was a trained botanist and knew how to coax the smallest seedlings into giants that produced the most delicious edibles. I swear we grew up eating blackberries the size of small birds. Tangerines whose peels just fell off. Carrots a foot long and as big around as a shovel handle but so sweet. The apricot was a work of art, umbrella shaped and produced the most amazing fruits. The figs were the stuff of legend. And the persimmons made the finest jams, pies, and cookies. That’s just the short list… one day I hope to recreate it for my family and friends. Hope those yellow potatoes were tasty! Cheers!
WASA brusher was probably manufactured in the 1960s WASA was based out of Mars Hill Maine next to Rte #1 .They used these to take sprouts off potatoes I remember shoveling potatoes into one in my teens.
I will now do everything in my power to protect the hood of my little JD 3320! Another uplifting presentation Molly! I like to believe that in my younger days, I would have fit in well with the Bell Farms team. C’est la vie.
That’s not a bad idea paying a little extra attention to the hoods. We always left our tractors outside all year because we didn’t have enough storage. This should help keep it looking like new! The Bells are such hard working kind people! I’m so lucky I’m part of this family now.
Wow! I've been waiting for this video. I really couldn't wait to see you install the new hood, how it's done, and most of all, how it looks. Simply awesome! It just shines in the sun. Now, I can't wait to see the new decals to complete the project, hopefully in the next video. Those floor mats look awesome, too. I can understand the moss and mold. I live in northern Oregon, where it rains nine months of the year. I have a car that sits, and I tell there is moss and mold that has occurred while it's been sitting so long. Thank you for sharing this video, I really appreciate it. 😊
If i was a TV producer or director i would be saying "we need more Molly, more Molly" The star of this here show is without a doubt is Molly. Your smile could brighten even the darkest skies.
I had to laugh when I saw the thumbnail for this video, that smile is the one you get when you have the “Koolest” hot rod on the block. Another great mixed day in the life of video!
Like my dad would say "nature wants to grow". The inside of that cab is a nice greenhouse, plenty of sun on that tiny bit of soil and seed. More snow this week, hope it's the last one, looking forward to springtime too.
Like the flavor of tractor you use. The hood makes the tractor look new. Nice job fellas installing the hood 💪 I use to carry eggs in my shirt when I was kid. Nothing better than farm fresh eggs.
A huge amount of fiddling work. Great result and it should last a lot longer with the innards protected. Looking forward to the GPS discing and plowing. That should be fun to watch, when you start.
We are not sure what we are going to get here in the coast, tomorrow evening into Thursday. Could be rain, could be snow, maybe both. I have not used my snowblower this year. A couple of storms with enough snow, but it was going to disappear the next day. I do have 4-wheel drive, winter tires with studs.
I've used a cheap plastic welder to stop the cracks on several JD Tractor Hoods with good success. When I see a crack starting I'll weld in some pins from the backside and get several more years out of a hood. I bought mine on Amazon for around 25 bucks and have used it to stop cracks in plastic/ fiberglass.
Look how nice it is out in Maine wow..... Week from now it will go time for me..... Molly tell Shane how you feel about his trackor.. Hint she finds my tractor lol
good day, a little technology is also part of the farm, the tractor john deere, a new hat, the wife molly also got a new cap and the cleaning is in tip top condition for the next potato harvest, it was nice until the next video, greetings
You know you can,and probably should take that floor mat out of the cab. I used to do that with our 4440 in the fall before we put it up for the winter. It sold at the auction for $3000.00 more than the original price new.
Great work getting the hood all done. Any more potato cooking vids on the horizon? Baked? Waffle? Roasted? Would love to see your favourites (if you have any!).
stickers will add wind resistance and kill your gas mileage, what that hood needs is flames...that will make it look like you are going fast even when sitting still. stickers/smickers

No it wasn't! but it was a used tractor we bought a few years ago, maybe 3 years ago. and it came with the hood cracked like that. it progressively got worse each time we opened it. after using the tractor for a few years, it was time to upgrade the hood. It is a really good tractor.
