The will must be adhered to and if not, you can probably create a suit that removes him as the executor of the will and instates someone else (probably a court-appointed lawyer). Any property specifically left to you is yours; nobody can change that by any legal means.
However, if there is no will or if he is deciding how and when to use items or property not included in the will, that is his job as executor;you might make a case that he is not fairly doing so, but otherwise tough luck.
