It is not a 57 or 58 Eldorado Brougham air compressor.  Those were electric pump motors.

That looks like it could be an air ride compressor for a 1959 (or 1960?) Fleetwood Brougham

That's definately not a 58 59 or 60 Cad pump. THese years are all twin pot compressors with the power steering reservoir backing up behind. I would hazard a guess that it is something else GM of the era but cannot positively identify it. Remember Buick had Airpoise etc etc. . .
