There's a ingersoll rand compressor(model 242-5n) available locally that I think I can get for cheap but the piston is laying in the crank case visible through the fill plug. So that leads me to believe a broken rod, what else could be messed up along with the rod? I'm fairly mechanically inclined so is it feasible for a basic driveway mechanic to repair it?

found an overhaul kit here http://www.compressorpartsstore.com/...kit%20242g.htm
 
It may have taken out everything inside of the pump, rod, crank etc. The crank might be broken in two. I'd look at it as junk and try to get it as cheap as possible.
