  • This crusty old compressor needed a lot of love. It was a fun restoration but not without its challenges. Lead based paint and Asbestos all in one tool! Restore challenge excepted!

    Fantastic. That compressor sure is built, unlike the throwaway units they make today.

    This was an amazing resto-mod!!!! I have been sooooooo impatiently waiting for this video ever since Steven dropped off this compressor to your shop. I know whoever the lucky winner is, will surely have a quality piece to add to their shop.

    Very nicely done. I especially liked where you 'polished' the edges of the fins and such. I love the red, very similar to my '07 Mitsubishi Galant. I bought a '79 Arien's snowblower for $60. Now I got about $180 after new points, condenser, spark plug, belts, and ball bearing to augur and built my own set of chains out of 24' of 5/16" chain, 12' of longer link for sides, and shorter for treads and 4 turnbuckles, but a great machine. I have an itch to take it totally apart and redo everything. I put the rubber pads on which helps a lot so I put a little 'turbo' decal on it. As far as the compressor, I'd love to have it but rather bow out and let someone else enjoy, at least I hope they really enjoy it. Looks like it might be a nice tire inflator. I believe it should be run like everything else needs to be run, especially our bodies, lol. Thanks for sharing.

    That was a rust bucket of sadness and you turned it into a smooth running cool classic symbol of the early to late 50s where everything was meant to look all futuristic and spacey. Good on you dude.

  • @normjacques6853
    @normjacques6853 5 років тому

    Hi Justin....I've been dealing with electrical and electronics for over fifty years. Here's a tip for future restorations: Change power cords on any old equipment to 3-wire (grounding plug), and attach the ground wire to the casting (or metal body of the tool/machine. Also, I would have replaced that old switch. New exact replicas are available online, and I wouldn't trust the old one for very long. The restoration, however, was very cool...as is that marvelous old compressor!! Thanks to you, and Stephen, for another great video! :-)

    Thank you for this nice restoration. That is exactly what I needed after a day like this one. Hat to drive 70km in the rain (8°C outside) with my scooter for nothing. I love it when people don't answer calls and messages...
    That red color is beautifull, locks like candy. After 5 min of watching I thought... hmmm there was no rain until 6:30min ... I love that consistency, no video without raindrops smashing on your roof.
    Would be nice to own a piece of your work but shipping to Germany would be mutch to expensive!
