Have alook at this, remove all the electrics.
Go to the suppercheap website and have alook at the Blackridge Air Compressor - Direct Drive, 1HP. 8litre tank 80$

Is that 12v or 240 unit? cheap pressure vessel, pressure switch and pressure control valve with reg though for sure!
Its a Nissan! =====> Its a Keeper!! ....... Got a TD42 in it BONUS!!....... I'm a lucky bugger! I've got 2 of em!
Check out my Toy --> MudRunnerTD's GQ From the Ground Up
The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.
WARNING: Towballs used for recoveries can, and do kill people and damage property.

Only cheap if all the bits are low voltage..

With all the bits left after taking the motor and compressor off you have to be in front I reckon. The pressure switch will handle the current through a relay but not the compressor at 12VDC.
Drain, pressure switch, fittings, regulator, gauge and tank for $80 sounds good. Most probably from that cheap manufacturing country but it will do far a while.
Add a 12VDC relay and 12VDC compressor plus a few hoses and fittings could be a winner.
Looks like Silent has used the same stuff in his DIY project here, not sure but looks very similar.
