Have you seen a Muffler Man during your travels? Did you get a picture of him? Do you know where one is? If you do, send us a picture and we’ll put it on the Muffler Man Page and give you credit. I took the photo to the left in September 1998. I thought, Well, I will just drive around Ft. Worth taking pictures of other Muffler Men and put them in “The Journal” also. I drove around and around Ft. Worth, but no Muffler Men anywhere to be found. Then I read the “Star Telegram” and found out that a man had gone around to all the muffler shops and talked them into letting him put them in his art show. So, I guess we’ll have to settle for only this one for now.
These Muffler Men were made from fiberglass by the International Fiberglass Co. from about 1960 till 1974. They were sold as attention getters for retail stores. This particular one was about 20 feet tall and was known as “The Country Bumpkin” and was sold to miniature golf courses. They were also known as “The Alfred E. Newman”, also “Happy Half Wits”. Located at Dallas tx. Northwest Hwy.” AKA” Loop 12

Illinois Muffler Man….That’s Old Route 66 in the Background. We were tooling down the highway when I saw this muffler on the side of the road. Made a quick turnaround and Neva snapped the Photo. When you do odd things like that people driving by tend to look at you like your strange. Note the gimmie hat on this muffler man, it says TEXAS.
