The problem is not a dire as you may think. What wound up as standard was the 3 point system. For any tractor with a hydraulic system already on it you can buy 3 point hitch conversions for them. So as an example, an AC CA with a snap coupler system that implements are hard to find to fit can be converted to cat 1 3 point with ease. 3 point implements can be found used or are available new for several different manufactures. I use cat 1 implements a lot. All of mine have been picked up used and include 2 bottom plow, 6' tandem disk, 7' field cultivator, 2 row crop cultivator, 5' brush mower, 5' finish mower, 1 shank sub soiler, rear blade, 2 row corn planter (something I cut down from a 4 row and added 3 point hitch to) post hole auger and a 3 point mounted 36 gallon sprayer with 12 foot boom that I made. There are other implements available that I don't own too. You can look up available implements new on manufacturers sites like Woods or Howse. Others include multi row veggie seeders, broadcast fertilizer spreaders, rototillers, scoops and such.
The availability of cat 1 3 point implements is one of the reasons the Ferguson and Ford tractors are so popular as they are cat1 3 point for the smaller ones. Often you add in the price of a hitch to the cost of the tractor and it's not cost effective. Now on the other side, if a guy wanted a particular tractor, well it's his money.
Some of the implements for the IH "Fast Hitch" or AC "Snap Coupler" and Case "Eagle Hitch" are getting to be pretty expensive because they are in demand by collectors and haven't been made in decades.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
