I hear you, John. We don't have much that sits around, but we have had some neighbors on both sides of this deal. We have had some that agree with you, and some that give it away just to see it used. What I hate to see, is someone cheap steal something from someone when they are unaware of the value of it. A neighbor lady after her husband passed away sold his old JD unstyled B for nothing, not realizing its value. I am sure the guy that got it justified it be saying, "she wasn't using it," or "its going to a good home." BS Its worth what it is worth. I have no problem with haggling for a sale, I have no problem with the seller wanting to see his or her item used more than they care about the money, but stealing just isn't taking something for nothing, sometimes it is taking something for next to nothing and stepping all over the unsuspecting "seller" to do it. Also, if a guy wants to let his farmall sit in the weeds and rust away, let him. It may be a shame, but it is his to deal with. If it doesn't bother him, it isn't going to bother me. Sooner or later, someone is going to get a chance to part it, restore it, or scrap it.
