I recently aquired my grandmas kenmore powermate 3.9.
1.what years were they made
2.where can I purchase a new hose for it. the current hose is completely dry rotted. im pretty sure it wasnt used all that much but sat in my grandmas sweltering and freezing attic for the past ten years. it works great.

Is it one that connects in the front or on top?I may have a hose for you. It wont match but it will get you through till you find a matching one. The one I have is gray. You can order one from sears but Im pretty sure that will be gray also and Im thinking yours is white.
