I just picked up a new catalog at my local TSC store. There are 3 new fully assembled compressors listed in it for under $600. The lowest priced one with a 60 gal tank and two cylinders is a Campbell Hausfeld for $399.86 the others are $549.63 and $599.96. They also have three larger ones listed but you wanted your price around $500.
I still don't think you can build your own for much less than that kind of money. I bought a 5HP two cylinder one from Northern Tool many years ago and it still runs fine for my garage.
Re: Quincy air compressors. We also use Quincy air compressors at work ( a medical facility) which supplies air to run all pneumatic equipment, damper motors for air handlers, boiler controls etc, throughout our facility.
