Ended up buying the second one, the gas compressor. Pics and price further down!

Looking at a possible purchase of either one of these. Can you name what they might be?

Im thinking the blue one is 5-7hp Quincy? Its labeled as Qualair?






And this gas powered pump? Looks smaller compared to the above.



Thanks!

Thank you guys!

So thats a Quincy 340 and 325. Quincy website mentions that it can range from 5-10hp for the 340 and 3-5hp for the 325.

Is there a way to tell the difference?

Not exactly. I would assume 340 has a 10HP 3-phase motor and that 325 has a 10-15hp gas engine.

Thank you guys!

Ok, so I ended up getting the gas compressor for........$55. Ha! But the joke may be on me, I bid on this from a online auction; when it came to picking up the compressor it took a forklift!

This thing is HUGE. I am looking to get some more info on this compressor head and the entire set up if you know anything about it.

What I know:
Quincy brand is molded into one of the smaller pieces connecting to the the head.

Mfg date on the gas tank is 1961. Im assuming this was a complete unit?

The flywheel turns smoothly but there is a loud knock in the gas motor on every rotation. Broken rod perhaps?

I just want the compressor head, so lets focus mostly on that.

Specs?
Model-
HP-
Electric motor recommendations- (I have 220/1ph/30amp power)-

How to test manually, what to look for?

Thanks guys.
