Ian,
I stumbled across this on a google search on something else.

It is not an estate settlement but a disposal of vehicles due to space,
money, and health issues. All the more reason for the auctioneer to get
top dollar for the historical equipmentfor the living who need the money.
I agree with you that this auction house is in total dereliction of
their duty.
Damn shame for the owner after all that hard work.
