Many times the small details make a difference if a tractor is a $900 project or a $4500 classic. In the 1950s tractors started coming with a lot of options, like power steering, transmission choices, wide front, special cast weights, and so on. Also new tires are very expensive these days, so good tires vs old cracked tires can be $1000 difference.....
You might have a rare combination that is worth a lot more, or you might have something common that is just running and no special features. Can be the same tractor
So even if we know what the tractors are in a list, the condition will make some difference!
Would anyone be around you that could look thrm over and give a value to them locally? Any old tractor clubs in the area - thry likely will have embers interested in buying, but if you get 3 friendly guys or one who isn't going to buy anything they would be able to note the special items from the regular run of the mill.
If you have enough tractors, perhaps an auction would be the simplest way to move them on. Perhaps there is a spring consignment ag auction near you, place them on the sales bill and people will come and bid them to usually a proper value for each machine. It does cost you 10% or maybe more, but you don't have to deal with scammers, bad checks, or crooks trying to take advantage of you. It just gets it all done with no extra fuss on your part.
