Very recently I picked up this:
It's a small Brownies yacht compressor with a 2 HP 115v electric motor.
I expect it's a Bauer but I an not sure.
I got it from someone who had been using it for paint ball. He had no idea that the black tube was a filter stack but did know enough to drain water "every once in a while".
I did run it for a few seconds before I bought it but shut it down after a few seconds when a nasty oil/water emulsion came out of the fill whip.
When I got it home I drained the oil....very nasty, removed the LF filter....horrible, I'm surprised it didn't fall apart when I pulled it out.
I'm just about to go out and get some new comp oil....I guess I'll fill and drain a few times to flush out all the cruddy old oil, unless there's a better way?
It did come with a fill whip, inlet hose (and filter), Leeson 3450rpm 2hp 115v motor and fan shroud....though no shroud for the belt side.
Here's some more pics:
