Old Quincy Compressor Info Needed

[jumbo61]

I was buying some shelving from a closed business and saw a compressor. It's for sale. The pump has the following numbers, 320-9-45707L, 4x2-1/2x3 and Quincy. The motor is 3hp (not 3 phase) but looks much larger. The tank is horz. and at least 80 gal. No power in the building so can't run it. They want $250. I searched the internet and found very little on that model (320). Looking for the cfm and anything else. Probably from the 50's. Is it worth the gamble? I didn't think to take a pic of it. Thanks.

I'm not seeing a 320 on this list?

I did get a return email from Quincy today.
"You are right about this being old! RC9 dates back to late 1940's or early 1950's!

I have attached a parts book for model 320. Your basic with a RC 9, predates the book I have supplied which is for a RC 13 but is the closest one available.

I have also included a current instruction manual which has a lot of helpful information. "
Looks to be about 60 yrs old. The size 4x2-1/2 (bores) x 3 (stroke) falls between the 310 and 325 models. I'm still undecided about buying it.

Are parts available for it?

Call Quincy (number on their site) or download the manual from their site. parts for your 310 should be easy to find.
