My grandfather's last tractor in his estate was recently put up for auction--within the family-- as there were several interested. It brought more than it was worth, but it had sentimental value. It should be worth noting that men should make their wishes clearly known. None of us know when our wives could become widows no matter what our age is. If there has been no prior designation then I would recommend family getting first chance perhaps by sealed bid. Estate divisions seem to bring out the worst in people sometimes and being fair with everyone works best. We have all seen enough tractors sell either on ebay or otherwise to know if one is priced particularly too low. Since my grandad's Ford 8n had "sentimental" value it brought $2650. when the condition of it would have easily been under $2000.00. Bottom line, don't make your widow do it, arrange in advance.
