Angie: Two-point refers to the mounting system for implements. Farmall used a proprietary system on many of their tractors which consisted of two blade-like arms on the implement that slid into mating receivers on the lift arms (the large arms in back that lifted the attachment) of the tractor, hence the name "two-point". This is in contrast to the majority of modern tractors that use a "3-point" system, with two sockets on the lift arms and one attachment point higher up on the tractor. To my knowledge, the A was never equipped with a 2-point hitch, so you may want to review this with your father. As far as implements, you can get nearly anything you want, if you're willing to do a little looking. Some of the more common ones are various sorts of cultivators, mowers (flail, sickle bar, and finish), plows, harrows, blades, and a few different types of front-end loaders. In addition, if the tractor has a regular drawbar, you can of course hook any "pull-type" implements you have (carts, wagons, etc.) to this and use them as well.
