Dealing with relatives and estates is tricky due to emotions and the need to maintain long term relationships. Try not to rock that boat if you can avoid it.
IMHO, a price of $1,000, $500 or $1,500 really isn't that much difference if both the buyer and seller are happy. In a few years today's sale price will be long forgotten. At the rate that tractor collecting is changing and old tractor prices are dropping you won't get much over scrap price when you are ready to sell it anyway.
If you want the tractor and can afford the asking price, then buy it without haggling. By paying the asking price without haggling, no one will be able to come back later and say you stole it or that you treated them badly.
If you can't afford it, or don't have a place to store it, or just plan to flip it quickly, I would let it go to someone else.
Worst case, be ready to bid on it at the estate auction, if there is one.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
