Buddy Baker is a household name in the realm of NASCAR racing, and one of the most notable and famed stock car racers in Mopar history. Baker began his racing career in 1959, but when he teamed up with Cotton Owens in the mid-sixties, the pair worked to make magic happen at tracks nationwide. One of Chrysler's dedicated test drivers in the late sixties and early seventies, Baker was a vital part of the winged car program's success and will forever be in the history books as the first man to exceed 200 mph in NASCAR, doing this in the famed #88 Charger Daytona test mule in 1970. Baker won the Southern 500 later that year in his Cotton Owens-built #6 Charger Daytona. At 6' 6" tall, Baker's one of the tallest drivers in NASCAR history, and in his thirty-four-years on the track, he was always in the thick of competition. A member of the International Motorsports Hall of Fame, Buddy Baker is truly one of the sport's all-time greats.
