Ralph Moody Sr. was a major driver (pun intended) of racing innovation and design throughout the 20th century.
In particular, together with John Holman, the Holman-Moody race team helped develop and refine a veritable fleet of awe-inspiring machines, from offshore power boats to the legendary Ford GT-40. In fact, serving as Ford’s de facto tuning shop in the 1960s, the FoMoCo tapped Holman-Moody to design and build its entrant into the nascent NASCAR Aero Wars: the Torino Talladega. While Ralph Moody Sr. passed away in 2004, the Moody legacy carries on with his son, Ralph Moody Jr. Now an accomplished mechanical engineer, Ralph Jr. got his start by wrenching in the Moody garage. We sat down with Ralph Moody Jr. to talk all about his family’s history and get the backstory behind a specific restoration project for this podcast episode.
