    Saylor Beall Air Compressor VT-735-80

    This is something the sales rep kept saying! "Saylor Beall is the best compressor you can buy, they are the cadillac of compressors and will last you the rest of your life." But in the same breath, "This compressor is 14 years old and its always cheaper to buy a new one than rebuild one"...

    Saylor Beall Air Compressor VT-735-80

    He was the only one in the area. This is a fully funtional compressor, I watched it running in the shop, it was set up differently than one would set it up in house and they kept a bunch of parts that were on it which is why i got it for the price I did. If it makes everyone feel better I will...

    He also told me that the CHEAPEST motor I could get for it was $682 + shipping when I know that I can get one much cheaper.

    I apologize for images coming up sideways, no idea why they did that?? I have cleaned the tank since these pictures were taken, I added a pressure guage and plumbed the left side fitting with a shut off valve and hose connection and purchases a OEM service valve. I unbolted the belt guard but...
