Quincy 216 compressor pump score

[Garagetime]

So I stopped up plowed out my dad's driveway tons of snow. Anyway some how we got on the subject of air compressors. He happens to mention he has the old compressor pump and motor 2 hp from the neighbors old compressor. My dad had picked it up in a clean up from the neighbors son about 5-6 years ago.After his dad had passed away. So my dad says you want it ? I say sure why not sometimes I just can't help myself. If some are wondering 5-6 years without me knowing my dad had it. You see he is a major pack rat and I try to over look it. I have mentioned in the past if he gets rid of somethings he can park in his garage. This just leads to a argument usually starts with. Do you really need 8 electrolux vacuums? The garage is a 2 bay over half full both sides. Anyway he's 87 years old and if it makes him happy and it's not hurting him then whatever.

Those are nice pumps, very quiet when running.

Nice score! If you need parts Quincy stocks them all at the best prices, even the stickers for the tank!

Heh, I just bought one for $50 while I continue my search for a bigger brother! Mine is a ROC19 with no pressure gauge, does that mean it's not pressure lubed? I actually bought it remotely while on a business trip and can't wait to pick it up and start messing with it on Saturday.

I don't know very much about them other than. What I have read/looked up. I'm sure there is someone on here that can better answer your questions.
