Legendary actor Paul Newman has left his money and property to his wife, his Oscars to his foundation and the race cars to the highest bidder.
The will was made public last week. It shows he left his personal property, including real estate, to longtime wife Joanne Woodward.
Newman left his Oscar statues and other awards to the Newman's Own Foundation.
Newman had three Oscars: a Best Actor statuette for "The Color of Money" and two other honorary statuettes.
Interest in Newman's Own and Salad King also goes to his foundation, which will distribute all profits to charity.
The will also directs that his airplane and race cars be sold, with proceeds going to his estate.
Newman died of cancer on Sept. 27 at age 83.
