I'm wondering the same thing and a few other ideas. If this poor fellow with failing health didn't have a Power of Attorney. Why is everyone in such a rush to lock the barn now that the horse is gone? I've seen all kinds of two cylinder diesels that "ran good" but................. By the time the gauges were replaced, the sheet metal straightened, new fenders, new battery box, new batteries, wiring, new grills, decals, entire three point hitch, four new tires, steering wheel, injection pumps, transfer pump, injectors, new guides and valves in the head, boring for new pistons, turning the crank and three new main bearings, a taper-loc flywheel, new clutch everything, replace the trans/pto seal and new pto clutch plates, new pto guard shield. Then a quality paint job. No $$$ for labour just a few bucks for utilities and tools. That 730 was awful expensive at $750.00. That tractor was probably promised to a Son or Grandson too but the old fellow forgot. I wonder how a 45+ year old tractor owned by someone with dementia could be so mint & pristine? This story rates up there with those people who had a machine in decent condition and was even rare. They parked it in the weeds by the road and said no to every potenial purchaser as the machine turned to rust while settling into the mud. There is a case for Power Of Attorney as well.
