Welcome braha!

I found a 1455 owners manual and parts list including wiring diagram on MTF:

Bolens 1455 OMM & Parts List - MyTractorForum.com - The Friendliest Tractor Forum and Best Place for Tractor Information

This 1969 magazine article linked below shows them priced about $1730 US when new.

Popular Science - Google Books

Sorry but I don't know enough about them neither to guess why it's dimensions are different from the standard or what a good price would be for one now.

Mark, that is a neat article from 1969 .. in all my years buying and selling and reading about them, I've NEVER seen that before .. Hope you dont mind, but I have to share that with the Bolens guys at MTF

In reality, as you can see, it looks original factory-built. So now you Bolens-freak - tell me what this is, and how many they made? (As above - serial no 10.) ??? Value today? Anybody interested?
Feeling honored of "Junior member". A short time ago, I didn´t have it, but now The Beatle´s - "When I´m 64" is my lead melody.

I'm guessing by the cut out in the hood and that frame extension, someone added a larger engine at some point ..
