In the 40's and 50's my father and our neighbours had tractors to PULL implements, hence no 3pt hitches, but I don't ever recall refering to these tractors as Wheatland (maybe Standard). However by the mid 50's some farmers were buying 3pt hiches on their new tractors, but they also had to buy a whole new set of implements (costly). This also may have been a factor why I don't see many Wheatland tractors from that era with factory 3pt hitches. It makes sense that the wheat farmers of the plains and praries needed larger implements and hence 3pt may have been a later development for them. However, I still like the BRUTE look of the Wheatland!
