Replacement tank for a Badger 380-2 Silent compressor

[Dluts38]

Any idea where to get replacement parts for the Badger 380-2?
Mine has numerous pin-hole leaks in the air tank but an otherwise fine Italian motor. I need a replacement 1.3 gal. tank. Any idea where to look? It's a 1990 model, red body w/handle that began developing tank leaks early in it's career and was "fixed" with numerous spot sodering. Hate to throw away an otherwise fine compressor.

maybe contact Badger direct, they may know of an aftermarket fit if they don't have the replacements themselves

Just try and find a cheap pancake compressor and trip the motor off.

I agree see if you can get a cheap one and use the parts.
