Charley Griffith (September 4, 1929-November 22, 1999) is a former NASCAR Grand National (now Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series) driver. He finished 3rd at the 1959 Daytona 500. While he finished 3rd, he was still a lap down from race winner Lee Petty. This finish was in only his third Grand National start. Griffin is part of NASCAR lore as his car was involved in the famous photo finish of the race.

He attempted to race in the 1960 Daytona 500, but did not qualify.
