Clifton “Coo Coo” Marlin toiled in tobacco fields on the family farm before racing on short tracks in Tennessee and NASCAR superspeedways. He never won a points race in 165 starts but was a regular front-runner, with nine top-five and 51 top-ten finishes, and he helped shape the sport as an independent, barn-built racer.
