Champion Pneumatic Air Compressor

[BigValley]

Hello… I’m new to the forum… have a Champion Pneumatic Machinery - OE-38-60 air compressor… has 1.5HP motor…
Curious if anyone has seen one like this and if you know anyone that is interested in these…. It’s in great shape… no leaks… lots of volume… just seeing if anyone appreciates these vintage compressors… thanks!

I have a similar Champion, Mine is a Port-o-Champ. High pressure low volume. It works great, got it from my Dad. The original tank had a leak so I swapped it with another small 15g tank. It works like a Champ.

There are some threads I've seen here on them, you just have to search. Theres a company in the pacific northwest that has replacement parts for them. I'd love the pimp mine out, but it's really low on the list at the moment.

you might wanna do some searches, heres a result of 1 i redid few years back.

1927 Flat Belt Champion Compressor w/ riveted tank. Will it pump again?

The riveted tank passed my hydro test so I'm using it in this refurb. I believe the whole thing is original from factory as you see it. Century motor runs, hoping to get the compressor pumping again. Taken apart and understanding how things work. Some cleaning and painting progress...
