Frank "Rebel" Mundy (June 18, 1918 in Atlanta, Georgia, as Francisco Eduardo Menendez – May 15, 2009)[1] was an American stock car racer. He competed in the American Automobile Association (AAA) stock cars, winning the 1955 national championship, before the series changed to United States Auto Club (USAC) sanction.[2] He also raced in NASCAR's Grand National (now NASCAR Cup Series) and won three races under that sanction.
Mundy attempted to qualify for the 1954 Indianapolis 500 but did not make the field.
