One of the few things not Original on my SC is the air compressor.
Someone have a pic of the correct one so I can find a replacement?

Attached is a photo of the air compressor / tire pump that came with my 83 SC. I'm trying to locate the original instruction booklet that goes with it. Does anyone have one?

A 1983 911SC would have used this air compressor:
I would not recommend buying it unless you want to store it in your garage though. They are ****ty in terms of performance, and the only value would be to a concours guy. The newer ones are by far better, and I would not want to be stuck on the side of the road with one.
Having said that, a quick fleabay search yields one:

The newer factory Porsche air compressor that was included in cars in the late 1980s and early 90s, in the compression moulded case that says "Porsche" on it are just as crappy. I don't like the Porsche air compressors at all.
Here is what I keep in my front trunk, and I have used it to air up everything from car tires, to truck, and even tractor tires. It's great.
