Steverino's CB77
That compressor is going to be more than enough. I Have a ball valve, regulator & moisture trap after my compressor. I also have a refrigerated air dryer & an automatic blow down timer to release built up moisture. I know many people put a moisture trap right before the tool using the air. I don't. Good luck with your set up.
'67 Ca77 Dream
Thank You for the moisture trap information oldbikedude, I am looking forward to studying those components so I can include them in my system. I had been thinking about building a little outdoor shed to put the compressor in but it occurred to me that I only use the bathroom to wash up. So yesterday I removed the toilet and put the compressor in there.
Seadog, I am blessed to have a great Dad who told me he wanted to help me build my dream shop before he was too old. It took us about 5 years, but we got it done, stick by stick. Now that I'm retired I spend a lot of time in it and I enjoy it more than I ever could of imagined. Right now I've got my CB77 and CB160 project bikes, a 50 Hudson Coupe that I can't wait to get started on, and a nearly finished 59 Buick Convertible. The Buick was so bad when I started that I've gone through three parts cars to get it where it is today. Here it is when I bought it Over twenty years ago.  59 Buick as found by Steve Steverinomeister, on FlickrInterior as found  59 Buick ratty interior by Steve Steverinomeister, on FlickrHere is some of the work I did on it. I had to replace most of the body. This is a right rear quarter panel off of a donor car. I had to patch it in order to use it.  59 Buick right quarter replacement by Steve Steverinomeister, on FlickrHeres how it is today. Nearly Finished.

A lot of the stainless was smashed and had cow hair stuck under it from cows using it as a scratching post.  59 Ford as found by Steve Steverinomeister, on FlickrIt had the most straight rust free body of any car I've ever restored, it was amazing.

Hudson PicturesSeadog
Here are a couple pics of my 1950 Hudson in as found condition. This car has been off the road since 1958. It looks rough but the body is in better condition than my Buick was when I found it. I won't need to replace any body panels, just the floor and a little rust repair where some dirt collec  Hudson Driver Side by Steve Steverinomeister, on Flickrted inside the rear fenders.  photo (5) by Steve Steverinomeister, on Flickr photo (4) by Steve Steverinomeister, on Flickr CAM00389 (1) by Steve Steverinomeister, on Flickr CAM00356 by Steve Steverinomeister, on Flickr
