Jeanette Arrington: Who Is Buddy Arrington’s Wife?

Jeanette Arrington is the known wife of the late American NASCAR Winston Cup Series driver Buddy Arrington, who died on August 2, 2022 aged 84.

Much of Jeanette’s life are under the wraps. However, there are othe reports which point out that he was married to Patsy Ann Chhitwood at the time he died.

It is not clear if Buddy Arrington and his known wife Jeanette got divorced and due to lack of proper sources of information on the issue, the truth about his wife remains a mystery.

Arrington has the second-most starts without a win, and finished in the top 10 of NASCAR points twice; in 1978 (ninth) and 1982 (seventh).

Arrington was loyal to his Mopar cars and engines, as he ran Chryslers and Dodges until 1985 (Chrysler stopped production of raceable body styles in 1983 and they became ineligible two years later) when the company stopped supporting them.

Arrington’s best career race and finish was at Talladega in 1979, where he had a powerful enough car to lead a few laps towards the end, and finished third.

What made Arrington unique in the history of the sport was his absolute dedication and loyalty to Chrysler, and his positive attitude in spite of what often seemed like insurmountable odds.
