Farmall Model 230 Tractor Touch Control?

[C.Amick]

Did some of the Model 230 tractors still have the old-style touch control units with the rock shafts? I have been looking at one that is for sale which has a different hydraulic system.

First ones has the Touch control like a C. Later ones had the Hydra-touch like a 240 but IH made a rockshaft that bolted on so a guy could use the older touch control implements on the newer Hydra-touch.

I guess those bolt-on rock shafts are about as scarce as hens teeth, as they say. I wouldn't have much use for the tractor without the rock shafts to lift my implements.
