I will be interested in your 3 point project. I've daydreamed about such a project. Mine would mimic the 06, 56, etc. in concept to retain the factory swinging drawbar. I would utilize the existing drawbar support holes in the rear end and fabricate a new drawbar support heavy enough to handle cat 1 anchor pin loads. The lift arms would be sourced from a newer model from the same line (240). Some of the remaining parts would have to be fabricated but many would be found at farm stores. There's an ISO and ASAE standards pdf that I came across a few years ago, it's typically subscription only access. They cover dimensions you'd never think of. I looked into many of the dimensions they suggest, and common sense with the basic 26, 32, etc spacing will get you in the ballpark anyway. Besides you have old Fords to compare to :)

ps the dimensions include such things as proper angle to the front wheels from the top link and the angle of the lower hitch points forward to a center point on the front axle.
