I can not find the library for this display - http://www.ebay.com/itm/200951258962?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
In reference to the documentation on the sales page states that it is assembled on the chipset ILI9163C.
Anyone working with this?
I have same display (in fact, two pieces) and the same hemlock. Display uses HX8353-C chip driver. There are no working solutions for Arduino 
My 1.8" SPI looks like yours. Runs OK with Adafruits software for the ST7735R -chip
You can also use my OOP framework for Arduino. It support this module. Both TFT and SD with FAT16 FS.
Cheers!

I am confused. I do not understand this:
Download and unzip in your Sketchbook hardware folder. Create the folder if missing. Restart the Arduino IDE and Cosa will show up as a number of boards and example sketches.
What is "Sketchbook hardware folder"? Where is the folder located?
"Create the folder if missing." Which folder? What name?
"Cosa will show up as a number of boards" where will be shown? Which Menu/Submenu?
I unziped archive to c:\Users\Administrator\Documents\Arduino\Cosa and open example from menu File/Sketchbook/Cosa/examples/Canvas/CosaCanvasST7735 - but compilation does not work and it shows many errors
Same problem here...
is it hard for someone with experience to modify the existing drivers for similar displays?
the data sheets are available Welcome bestrepairtool.com - BlueHost.com
Please see the blog; Cosa: Installing Cosa
Programs in Arduino are called sketches and stored in the Sketchbook directory. You should create a directory named hardware in the Sketchbook directory and unzip the Cosa zip file there. It is really simple. Do not attempt to move files around you will just get a lot of compile errors.
If you have problems please post me a message.
Cheers!
ILI9163C it's quite different and has nothing to do with ST7735 and it's variations (R, etc), it has differents initializations and even some command it's different! I really don't think you get working succesfully with ST7735 driver, even similar drivers like ILI9340 won't work.
You need a bit of caution with these displays, you can acces some register that modify the internal voltage multiplier and so on so it's possible to damage it.
What you need it's just a library to drive this specific chip/display and I will avoid an entire framework like 'cosa' that's pretty interesting but looks like completely out of topic here.
I got a similar display (this time a 128x128) from china eseller and was completely confused since they provide totally wrong informations about it (even the wrong chip!). I spent some hours to find out was a ILI9163C that (sigh..) has almost not support between arduiners.
I got a working library for the 4 wire interface (cs,rs,mosi and sck) of this display a month ago from a friend of mine,later when I'm at home I will point you to the download page in github, it's a beta but he done a pretty good job since he used the optimized DMI SPI interfaces of DUE and Teensy3 and the fastest way to drive it even with UNO so at the end it's pretty fast, it's not public since it's still a beta but I ask him to convert in public so everyone can access it.
here's alpha version:
I only tested with Teensy3 but should work with Arduino's (it compile without errors).
It's just an alpha but speed it's pretty impressive, the author it's actually quite busy but he promised to put his hands on maybe in the weekend. If you need a video-proof I can shot one.
The author released a working beta and a video ILI9163C fast driver - YouTube
I'm actually using Teensy3 as him so I cannot check with arduino's but if someone can try it... Remember that it needs a level converter for Arduino's 5V but can directly connected to DUE and Teensy3.
