Well, this wasn't a Stocker, but this was the weirdest thing I ever saw: Hot Rod magazine, way back, had an article about a '40 or ';41 Willys coupe that had a supecharged V8 under the hood that was force-fed pressurized air from a GMC blower that was driven by a 4-cylinder industrial engine of some kind. The blower and the auxialliary engine were both in the TRUNK!!!

It was called "Blown by Proxy".... lol!

Strange, indeed...
