Just checking before I toss.

This vacuum is dangerously close to going into the garbage.
I saved it from the dumpster in 1999. The lady that tossed it had put on a new plug and it wasn't on right. My room mate fixed it and it has worked ever since.
The problem is the hose,cord and power head. The power head died ages ago. The hose has split in so many places it is beyond taping. The cord got burned somehow. I do have all the tools and the wands. Toss or save?

New hose for $25 ?

Where are you finding new hoses for $25? I had a store and still couldn't get one for that.
