I have seen one Hi clear 140 with a 2 point fast hitch.  It was 
originally from Louisiana.  The owner was going to restore it but it has 
since disappeared and I fear has been sold for scrap.
As Al said, around here they are plentiful and all I have seen other 
than this on had the one point fast hitch.
