Too bad. We lost our farm shop in 1976 so I know the feeling. Ours was in the winter and we had livestock. Had to search the next day to even find a screwdriver to fix a frozen livestock waterer.
Years ago my dad and uncle bought an 806 Farmall that had been in a barn fire. They disassembled it, still had grease in the rear end. They took the internal parts, gears, lift arms, etc. cleaned them and then coated them in melted grease. They are still hanging on nails in an old shed of ours. That was 40 years ago.
I would guess the castings could be OK. But if hot and the cold water from the fire dept. hit anything, man I dont know.
Oh, and you will not even need an attorney. With the newspaper article and obvious nature of the fire, contact the neighbors property ins. company. Give them a list of destroyed property and its value. They should build you a new shed and pay for what was destroyed.
If they balk or try to low ball you, then you might have to get an atty.
