I found one for $75 on CR. It was an Ingersoll Rand Compressor Model 232-C. Seems to be an older two stage (two cylinder) unit. Came out of an old gas station in Boulder, Colorado. I think it's 80 gallon, but it could be 60. The tag states it's a 'Type 30'. I can't find anything on this particular model with the 232 compressor. The person claimed it was a 1HP motor, but it's clearly a 5HP or large single phase motor. Just way too big. I haven't cleaned it up yet, but it works fine. Went to 140psi and then cycled off. The flywheel has a wobble to it. I was thinking of bring it down to my local machine shop to have it fixed. Not sure if it's that important. The serial number starts is 67xxx. I assume it means it was built in 1967. I've been looking for a good industrial compressor for a decent price. This fit the bill.
