I'm sorry but when I look at that Champion I think of a well water storage tank.

Factoid: Champion compressor is sold with the Moisture Minder as the auto drain, mounted up by the drive motor & pump.

Yep. I'd put it up against a Quincy any day as they are both excellent well made units.

Yep. Bought it from a former employer as it was surplus. Looked up the shipping weight and the weight of a 10hp 3 phase motor.
Subtracted the motor weight from the shipping weight and calculated the scrap value minus the motor. Looked up the going scrap price of assembled motors and did the math. Came up with $275 which was accepted.
Truth be told I was willing to pay $1000.00 for it.
