Agreed. These tractors appear to be ones he purchased later and never really used - just collected. Other than the fact he owned them they really aren't "family". I would let them go at a consignment auction and try to keep the peace in the family. If you buy one or two back good, if they all sell no big deal.
I recently bought one of my FIL's old tractors - a D17 that had definitely seen its better days. The one good thing you could say was it would start, no brakes, poor tires, rusted out rims and bad wiring. My son wanted it and we bought it from my MIL for $1400 for him to fix up as a 4H project. One of my BILs approached me later and asked if I didn't think I should have paid more for it. My response was I'll sell it to you for exactly what I paid for it and be glad to be rid of it (I was *** deep trying to fix the wiring and was fed up with it at the time). He said he didn't want it and I told him to STFU and mind his own business then. He hasn't talked to me since - I think that made it worth $1400.
