I am an attorney that has filed a lawsuit against Bubba's East Coast Rods & Customs, in Fairfax County Circuit Court, case No.: 2010-3142.

I am gathering information on other people who have been ripped off by Bubba's. Anything you can share about your experience with Bubba's would be helpful, especially if you know of other people who have also been ripped off. My client just posted a video on You Tube about Bubba's.This site changes the exact IRL to just say You Tube. I am sure a You Tube search will locate it.

I stumbled across the April 6th 2010 posting by somebody who obviously chooses to hide their identity but I have no doubt who the person is.
It is a former disgruntled employee who lost his job for absolutely horrible work.
This person lied about everything to include companies he allegedly owned and his ability to perform the work he said he could.
I am a person who documents everything in written, photo and video form.
I have evidence of every car he touched and the damage he did to each car to include breaking several pieces in my personal car that I asked him to work on.
He also the same person that knew we are a drug, alcohol and smoke free workplace yet after being there a couple of days we caught him hiding and smoking, have first hand witnesses that were at his house watching him use drugs and drink.
Additionally, we have no tolerance for nor will we stand for abuse to women. We caught him on our company phone shouting obscenities at a woman that would not release homeowners documents to him due to unpaid condo fees.
This is also the same person that would enter the shop during off business hours because we were foolish enough to trust him with a key and stole our customers information and called them spreading lies after we fired him all of whom are going to be testifying against him.
You see we did some investigating and found out about this persons background and what we found was by no means a surprise.
With previous legal and financial problems it became even more evident who this person really was.
It takes a very evil, twisted person to rationalize and plot out the theft of a company's client base because they knew their job was in jeopardy as their lies were quickly catching up with them.
Every dog has it's day though and what goes around comes around.
You see I love the company Bubba and I own and work an extremely honest 20 hour day.
I am not unwise to those that post negative things about us, a video that can be torn to shreds by even the most incompetent C level technician because it all comes back to those that are dishonest in the end.
I have spent far to much time building this business and will defend her to the death. I will not allow others claims of poor work after we have personally driven and quality checked each car, photographed with date stamps and in many cases video taped the car in top notch condition prior to it being picked up to destroy what we have built upon honesty and integrity.
I am a fighter and NEVER back down! I will not allow the actions of another to disrespectfully ruin what all of us at Bubbas East Coast Rods & Customs have worked so damned hard to build.
There is NO defense against the truth. It always has and always will win!
Therefore, it would be my guess that the very same person that made the April 6 2010 postings should be enjoying the 1.7 million dollar suit our attorney had him served with because of all the damage he caused us.
We are good people who will always go the extra mile to make a customer happy. We never want anyone upset or disappointed with us. If anyone is unhappy for any reason it only takes talking to any one of us and we will immediately address the problem to ensure your satisfaction but to walk away and not say anything and then be negative is not fair and does not give a person the chance at resolution.
People taking a shot at Bubbas East Coast Rods & Customs and it's employees would be wise to know that there is a lot of fight in this dog and I am not going to waste my time playing games with frivolous law suits or negative postings. I will defend our company and do so like a rabid animal.

This is Tommy "B" the former employee that he thinks is writing these posts but he will soon wake up and realize there are people out there besides me that think he is an asshole! As for any posts prior to this one, are not me. I found out about this blog by a friend of mine who saw Tom from Bubbas use my name. Here's the deal...Tom and bubba do shoddy work, they take money for things that the do not even do to your car. They are scam artists, just ask any of the numerous people file law suits against them. And for the record, I quit bubbas because they are all losers that cheat people and I have a good night sleep knowing that I am not a part of them at all! Tom and Bubba have both threatened me but never came through with anything cause as usual they are all talk and no action! And here is a public announcement: hey Tom and Bubba Lloyd, you know how to find me now let's see you follow up on your threats! I will be waiting...

Hey Tom Lloyd? You are lying your ass off here and as always you can't back anything you say up with any kind of proof because none of what you said EVER happened. It's funny how you say you served me with a law suit? Well a few of my close friends checked out the courts and you have never filed any suit against me nor could you ever because like I said earlier in my post: You cant back up anything you say because it NEVER happened.

Keep living in your dream world. You know nothing about my past, my present or my future for that matter. What you do know is NOTHING! Your business is failing because you rip people off and do some shitty work which has nothing to do with me. I am not nor have I ever claimed to be a MECHANIC. You and Bubbles should claim the same thing. I have seen first hand the kind of work you both do and I am not impressed. From what I have been reading, there are alot of other people out the that are less impressed with your work than I am. As for yelling at a lady on the phone, I admit to that So? And? You are the worst offender when it comes to treating women with respect. Just ask your so-called wife/friend/roomate/sugarmomma/what ever else you call her. Yeah you know EXACTLY who I am talking about.

Tom facts are facts and here they are:

Tom Lloyd & Jonathan T. Lloyd aka "BUBBA" have both threatened me, talked behind my back to close friends of mine who tell me everything, Brag about how tough you both think you are, bottom line?

I dont care because the two of you are about as worrysome to me as a cloudy day!
ALL TALK NO ACTION - YOU KNOW WHERE TO FIND ME - COME AND PROVE YOURSELVES

Oh that's right...you duck and hide when you are not in your shop...Afraid there are people out there in Fairfax that dont like you very much!

I am not wasting any more of my time on you petty boys...I have better things to do with my time!

Tom Lloyd of Bubbas East Coast Rods & Custom is a liar, cheat and a fraud. he is not to be trusted. I gave my 1975 corvette for restoration , he lied about the work he didn't do and always has some kind of excuse for wrong he has done.
I am currently suing him!

Don't take you car to Bubbas East Coast Rods & Customs.

Yes he will get mad occasionally but really he's not bad. And like the lawsuits are ridiculous even seen bubba's work and for your information "Art M" you're car looked perfect when i saw it.by the way, pushing the clutch in helps the car not make noises.

The ABSOLUTE NEXT DAY LESS THAN 18HOURS LATER, "Tommy B" responds on July 20 at 4pm to my dad's post...and he mentions in the end how he has better things to do with his "time"...WAIT FOR IT!!, oh, sooo just thinking out loud here BUT IF you had better things to do with your time...HOW IN THE WORLD could you possibly know that my dad posting something to this UNDERGROUND website withOUT actually getting on it EVERYDAY AND CHECKING FOR IT!!!! hahahahahahahaahahaha, wait..im not done...thats not all. maybe at this point, the people reading my response are figuring things out... Oh, one more thing...Arthur Morgan, as for you...I will be posting copies of your invoices you received for your "1975 Corvette" that well, lol...describe in EXACT detail what it was you paid for on your vehicle AND by the way, will ALSO be posting up the detailed photos of your vehicle and EVERY PART down to the last nut and bolt installed on your Corvette...Please try and lie about these items after they are displayed to well, EVERYONE! Ok I'm done now on this website, I need to get back to scamming people real quick before I go to bed so I can get a AMMMMMAAAAAzzzzingg nights sleeping knowing I've gotten "One-Up" on another person!! YESSS! Random Question....I'd like people to answer if they can or don't mind answering.... JUST TO VERIFY, the absolute FIRST THING you do when driving a MANUAL TRANSMISSION VEHICLE ISSSSSSS.....?

Is there a purpose to this, who really cares about an automotive repair shop. Save your breath for something important, because everyone has an issue with one or two!

Art M, I think if you are looking for a correct Corvette restoration, go to a "Corvette Restoration Specialist." Fiberglass is extremely unforgiving, even the most reputable body shops have a difficult time with prep and paint. Also, if you're pursuing restitution in civil court and you have a lawyer, don't post information on FFXU, let your lawyer handle it.

Bubbas, just because you're on local TV it does not mean your a "STAR!" Be humble and show your skill through your work. I have taken my Corvette and Cuda to your "Cruise-Ins" and I've enjoyed your hospitality and was also impressed with your work. That said, your company has a lot of growing up to do and has a really bright future if you keep your nose clean.

Please ignore post on FFXU in the future and don't waste your time.

To all; Tommy B, Tom @ Bubbas and Bubba Loyd, your back and fourth bashing of one another is childish and unprofessional.

If you're going to post a complaint about a company/business go to a reputable company/business rating site. When you post a complaint on FFXU it is hard to take you serious, most of the post are juvenile.

FFXU should be better utilized.

Goodbye & Goodnight! :) Feel free to contact the shop if you haven't been screwed in a while and I'm sure myself or my father who is probably a better man than ANYONE out there making up b.s. could EVER be would be MORE than pleased to screw you!!

I just wanted to take a moment to respond to Professional Business Owners post.
To start off with I would like to say thank you for your refreshing and objective approach.
However, please allow me to address one item.
To the dismay of many Bubba is very much a STAR and his TV show is NOT limited simply to the local area.
Bubbas TV show won the Silver TELLY for 2009 giving it top honors which is on display here in our lobby.
With a verified 11 million weekly viewers, Hot Rod Reality was just introduced in 55 of 72 counties in Pennsylvania AND 3 counties in Los Angeles, Ca. which should bring him into the neighborhood of approximately 15 million weekly viewers.
Additionally, he was just moved from a 12:30pm Sunday prime time slot to 5 nights a week during prime time in preparation for and pre promotion of a major network deal that was recently struck.
His work is featured in MANY industry magazines and he was just featured on CBS AND several other newspapers this last 6 weeks.
Take a look at the website and you will see it all posted on pages 1 & 2 of the HOME page.
And finally Bubba was just named 1 of the top 5 classic car/hot rod builders by an industry print magazine.
Yes, Bubba is very much a STAR so lets be exceedingly clear about that!
That said Bubba is a very humble young man with immeasurable God given talent whose work clearly speaks for itself and if you would like to personally experience his work please come to the Clifton car show on Monday Spetember 6th in Clifton Va where he will have 2 cars displayed.
When you see the quality of work and craftsmanship in the red 1972 Z 28 your jaw will drop.
Keeping it real and staying humble....thats "Doin' It Bubba Style"!

Please provide the names of the magazines which list him as 1 of the 5 "top builders". I'd really love to see the articles.
You've been saying this for years and I've still yet to see "these magazine articles". Also, can't seem to find Bubba in the Guinness Book of World Records. Since you have told people many times over the years that he was in there as the youngest certified ASC mechanic

Bubba unveiled the 1972 Z28 he had just completed the restoration on at the huge annual Clifton car show.
The owner test drove the car the night before and after several hours of driving it called to exclaim how amazed he was at the quality of the restoration.
The Councilman of Fairfax City who is a very close friend of ...the owner drove the Z 28 to the event the next morning who also couldn't say enough good things about the way the car drove and looked. He couldn't find enough kind words to say about Bubbas restoration of the car.
Restoration perfection......that's what we call "Doin It Bubba Style"!

Even asked one of your partners there and they just smiled and chuckled. I think the only thing you have there in "illuminated sealed cases" are all the lies you all tell.

I have no use for people that pay to have someone else restore their cars, or buy restored cars. All that takes is money, not skill. I restore/build my own cars and only hang out with others guys that do their own work. You can learn stuff this way.

I don't know anything about this bubba character, but anytime you deal with shops you're taking a chance. Do it yourself! That way you can take pride in your own work, not your bank account.

PS: The only outside work that I approve of is paint. That is a skill that takes a long, long time to master. I have shot some of my cars, but for the special projects, I let a pro do it.

Although I have a special appreciation for anyone who can work on their own cars, it's a lot easier said than done. Some folks simply don't have the proper environment to perform such work, while others are too busy, and others simply don't have the right tools, safety equipment, etc. I have to admit, though, I envy folks who can get it all done.

As for performance modifications and complete builds, I really would like to do that on my own. I'm trying to add FI to my vehicle in the near future, and I hope to do most of the ratchet work myself, as well as the CPU programming. It seems like a truly overwhelming task, but it should be satisfying.

FYI: A Telly award is for Public Access TV. That's not real TV folks. Not to belittle the show but keep it real. They're probably "bicycling" the show to other Public Access Stations. Winning a Telly is an honor (I have one too) but don't represent the show as something it's not.

Wish I knew about this site before I took my car to Bubbas. Good example is professional business owner comment and the defensive Comment lloyd came back with. I took my car and the work done was ok but it is obvious they lack the honesty part...oil spot on my seat that they tried to clean up, yet turned in my car without mentioning a word. I had NO IDEA who Bubba is and Honestly don't care.....just needed work on my car....I got the amazing tour and all this info about how incredible this kid is....as a parent myself I can certainly understand the excitement a parent feels.....but this is a business and I am on a tight schedule. I was told that was Bubba...behind glass window. The only other time I saw him was when a question was asked about my car....he came out answered it without an acknowledgment of me, his customer. I could not wait to get my car out of there cause 90% of the conversations were about the show, hot everyone famous wants him, etc, etc.....yea,yea I get it can u finish my car so I can go....Any time I questioned ANYTHING I was told, Daddy came out defending everything just like he did above with PBO who made a valid point. I too am disappointed this family decided to get involved in this back and forth lashing. This is not elementary where you play Tag You're It, this is a business where u cater to your customers. Also, I don't believe there is anything like life experiences.....and when u think u know it all you quit learning and growing. I will not even bother to see if any comments r added telling me how wrong I am and why I don't know anything.....what I do know is my check was deposited for work that was good but because of oil stain on newly upholstered seat, poor rating for honesty(we did not go back because we didn't want to hear another BS story)the customer service and manners in general will catch up with any business. We have since moved on to another mechanic who wants to satisfy us,his customers and not his ego....we have referred him to 4 of our friends.

I see the same people keep posting negative comments using different names.
To those that question the authenticity of who we are and what we claim please feel free to call Tucker at 703 766 0295 and set up an appt to come sit down with Daddy and he will gladly provide back up to anything that is claimed.
So let jealousy not be your guide and be ready to post here publicly that you have seen the evidence and that you were foolish in your assertions and apologize.
Take a look at this next post and our work will once again clearly speak for itself.
Thank you,
Daddy of the man behind the glass window, scam artist, worthless TELLY fabricator of a show seen everywhere from PA to LA and about to shock and awe you with some BIG news, host of car shows that you talk to one of the attendees and we werent there (funny we havent had any car shows this year because of our schedule but you were at one. ha! whose the liar?), sealer of a glass case that houses lies, egotist, excited parent, seat stainer, and all around rip off artist.

I've owned my 66 chevelle SS 396 car for 25 yrs. I live in FFX and regularly attend the clifton car show. I've never heard of Bubba's. I bet you are a proud papa as we all are of our kids, what you need to realise is you are in the customer service business and what you are doing is making enimies of possible clients. I would suggest you take a back seat to all the trash talking and get back to work. I would never let you touch my beloved car because you seem like an arrogant prick.

Just my opinion, I know that means nothing to you but concider what kind of message you send to others, you want to grow your business and not come off looking like a dick.

JT I know you or your father will probably read this, so I just wanted to express my concern for what seems to be happening on this silly website as well as on youtube.

JT YOU ARE SO MUCH BETTER THAN THIS please please take a step back and re-evaluate the situation, the back and forth that exists between your business and whoever ever else can be a major turn off to future customers. Why would they want to deal with a business that doesn't handle customer complaints with grace? Even if you have all the talent in the world, they will not want to put up with customer service that might turn on them. THAT is the impression that is given here. One professional, dignified response would have been more than enough to deal with the situation, but a myriad of defensive responses only perpetuates the negative feedback. You are giving them ammunition. Let your quality work do the talking for you, and don’t feel like you need to justify yourself to people who have nothing better to do but be haters. Don’t lower yourself to their level.

Mr. Lloyd, I know you are very, very proud of JT (as am I), and I know you are constantly trying to sell the brand, but honestly (I say this with love) it can get obnoxious (with love!!). I’m sorry don’t be mad just trying to help! It is overwhelming, and most times a bit corny/cheesy. (with love)

I truly wish you the most success. JT I know your intentions are good, just stay true to who you are.

And to everyone out there (probably all of the 5 same people who keep posting like fools with nothing better in their lives) JT aka Bubba is a hard worker who has a deep seeded passion for cars and I know he will treat your car, your BABY, just like he would treat his own: with love and respect.

I stumbled across this forum and noticed the name Tommy B came up.
This wouldn't happen to be the same want to be biker that worked at the Fairfax Harley dealer would it?
I can't speak for any of the other postings on this forum but I can speak about my personal experiences with that asshole.
After having foolishly fallen into a relationship of almost a year with him I recently found out by a mutual friend that he has been in a long term relationship with another want to be biker chick.
Then when I confronted him about it he became an abusive stalker. He is a loud mouth loser who treats women like shit and if his lips are moving you can best believe he is telling another of his lies.
I can only imagine how he must treat his full time girl friend. I'm sure all he does is lie to her too.
He lies so much he even believes his own lies.
Everyone out there be cautious of this piece of shit who lies and wrecked my life.
I am certain if he has done this shit to me he has done it to others as well.
His day is coming!

Here is a wonderful posting a customer just put up about Bubbas on the internet so I though I would share it with you. It compliments the last post I put up for you.
I hope you enjoy the kind words as much as we did.
This is what we call Makin' Dreams Come True Bubba Style!

Many years ago my husband and I bought a brand new 1966 VW Bus.
We were young hippies and part of the great American social change of that time.
We decided to tour our great nation spending months on the road, in the bus stopping at music festivals and being very much a part of the culture of that era.
We started a family and took on a safe government job. We traveled the world as part of our job and our children continued to grow but we held on to our treasured 66 VW bus.
My husband and I always noticed all the cool, old cars parked at Bubbas so one day I decided to stop in.
I was met by Tom who took a lot of time to just sit and listen to my adventures and the memories associated with our bus. He never said a word. He just smiled and listened and allowed me the chance to travel down memory lane.
I explained to Tom that my husband was now very ill and that we had also lost a daughter several years past and his compassion and understanding were overwhelming.
I shared with him my sincere desire to get our bus back on the road so my husband could drive it once again before he became any more ill and shared with Tom that I had just sewn and installed curtains almost exactly like the ones we had in the bus so long ago.
When I had finished speaking Tom very quietly said that Bubba and his team would gladly get the old girl running again.
Feeling quite confident and assured by Toms kind, gentle and soft demeanor I made the decision to have the bus towed into Bubbas East Coast Rods & Customs.
2 weeks later Dave called and told me she was ready for pick up.
I loaded my husband in the car and took him with me to Bubbas.
When we got there he could hardly speak.
There was our treasured old girl looking pristine and when Teddy started her up she ran like a fine Swiss watch.
I would like to personally thank the staff at Bubbas East Coast Rods & Customs.
I have never met a finer group of caring, loving and understanding people within a business environment.
They truly are a world apart from any other automotive shop.
Thanks again guys for making such a special dream come true.

Hey are these guys still in business? I was told that Tom and Bubba jsust filed bankruptcy last night to get out of going to court in a fraud case today. What a great defense. I wonder if their business is going to stay open.I'm sure all their followers are eager to hear them talk their way out of this one.

Fantastic!
I cant think of a better way to describe the quality of work and the group of guys down at Bubbas East Coast Rods & Customs.
They just completed a restoration on my 56 Nash and the level of detail Bubba put into the project is far above and beyond what I would have ever expected and all at a price that was less expensive than what I had been quoted at a couple of restoration houses in the mid west.
My Nash runs spot on and doesn't leak a drop or skip a beat.
As a former Air Force fighter pilot I fully understand and appreciate the importance of attention to detail and reliability.
A customer certainly gets all that and more at Bubba's.
Simply put it's a wonderful operation that produces the highest quality work available.
And now I know what it means when Doin' It Bubba Style is said.
Great work Bubba and crew.
Many, many thanks to you!

Vondari Racing Team Truck Finds a New Garage

So we all know winter is here, and our reports tend to be sporadic at times until the springtime. That’s just the nature of a seasonal sport.

Those of you who know the Vondari family also know that racing is what drives us and we do our best to promote motorcycle road racing in the best way that we know how.

Well, if racing is what drives us, what about what we drive? We surround ourselves with certain things that we claim “we couldn’t live without†like cell phones, computers, and cars. Cars are simply a part of the American fabric these days – for a lot of people, what we drive is what defines us. For a lot of people, too, a car is just another modern day tool that we have to rely on to make ends meet.

However you feel about your car, when was the last time you got outstanding service – the kind of service that leaves you feeling confident about your car and one less thing to worry about? That happened to me, and I really feel compelled to tell folks about this experience.

I have a lot of pet projects. My biggest one is my ’89 Suburban sittin’ on 35s. Don’t laugh, it’s my dream car. Before I committed to getting any work done on this project, just like anyone else I did my research on shops to decide where to take my baby. The main concern was finding a shop that was going to exceed my expectations, not just meet them.

What were my criteria? Passion, pride, honesty, commitment, attitude, and creativity. My main concern was that I wanted someone who was passionate about what they do. Passion is what drives our race team, passions are what drives anyone to do their best – passion is what defines us as human beings. I wanted someone who takes pride in their work and won’t settle for second best. Honest work is always needed. Are they committed to not only doing their best but being the best and standing by their work? Does the shop represent itself with a professional attitude that I would feel comfortable recommending to my mom? And for a restoration project, I want a shop full of ideas and creativity, allowing me to make my own decisions, not force me to do what everyone else does.

In short, I wanted someone that wasn’t just going to work on my dream car but someone who would invest themselves in the project, who can claim part ownership of it – meaning that it’s my truck, but it’s also theirs in a way when it’s at the shop.

I ended up at Bubbas East Coast Rods and Customs. My time there was nothing less than stellar. I witnessed one of the most professional set-ups as a whole that I have seen in a long time shop – clean, free of debris and possible hazards. Professional appearance of the technicians, great professional attitude. I even caught them paying attention to the little details by wiping down finger prints and polishing up the bits that nobody will probably ever see. That’s going the extra mile. The staff was patient, understanding, and able to communicate clearly any complex problems and procedures.

As for the cars? Man they were awesome. By far some of the cleanest I’ve ever seen, inside and out.

I know Vondari Racing is all about motorcycle road racing, and that will never change because that’s our passion. But because of my experience at Bubbas and what I’ve personally seen there, I’m posting this up because I really feel that everyone should have a shop or garage that they can trust and that has their best interests in mind.

So either mild or wild, the next time you need help with your car give Bubbas a call, or better yet stop by and check them out.

Cheers,

Constantine

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA i just found this and after reading for a bit bc i had nothing to do after work i became interested and read practically everything didnt want to read it all but i just have to laugh more and more bubba personally worked on my car and i checked it out afterwards i love what he did granite i thought he was to do other things to my car but there was some miscommunication there so i understand why it didnt get done. and as for the lying ITS TOMS FUCKING SON LET HIM BE PROUD OF THE BOY WOULD U LIKE IT IF I ATTEMPTED TO CRUSH ANY DREAM OR REALITY OF UR CHILD big whoop his show is not that well known i mean like i didnt even kno how well known oprah was till a few years ago and now shes got her own station WTF? he is a small business owner u dont like his work oh well just like my mother used to tell me if u dont like it then dont look at it. and for all u precious little fuckers who want to say tom and bubba are liars.... ughhh so ur gonna tell everybody uve never said a lie to make urself look better???? i mean like seriously walmart fuckin lies all the time and they are a fortune 500 company. so im sure that some where in ur precious lifetime u fuckin lied and ull probably lie at court bc u paid a lot of money for something not many ppl kno how to do hence why u had someone else do it for u u lazy bastards. im not gonna say what i kno thats wrong with tht company bc personally its so wrong that its fucking correct.......

but Tom or Bubba,
dont post anything else on this website due to the fact that anything u have to say can be told when these pussies give you a a call and actually inquire about ur company and everytime u post on here, i know its not intentional, but ur makin yourself look bad. when i think of a company and i do research i find one bad thing i wont go there just bc of past experiences and i kno for a fact that u guys are excellent at what u do keep doin it.

Bubba, on a personal note i didnt like the attitude u had with me it was a more of an i dont care attitude but i apologize for tht i didnt realize how much bullshit ur goin through right now good luck dude and i plan to bring my car back again

and if anybody has a problem with tht then..........

If you are bitching do your own work then!! These guys opend up their doors to me for no $$$ gain, they are just quality people!!!! Once I had a break down and had to have them fix a car cuz it was cold out and did not want to mess with it, and they fixed it right the first time. Custom Car business is a tough one because every joe that has read a HOT ROD magazine thinks they are experts, TOM and JT are true experts in this field. Everyone is gonna have haters Orange County Choppers has their haters also, part of the business!!

They still haven't filed all the necessary papers that were due back in November. But don't worry they have screwed themselves personally for years to come. They did this to get out of the two lawsuits they had pending because they had no defense for the fraud charges against them but they will have the worst credit rating imaginable for the next 7 years. Try buying a car, house etc. The business will probably stay open because they will register it in their daughter/sister's name but the slime always rises to the top. The word will get around to all the classic car prople what they have done. CHarging people for work they never did. FRAUD.

patriot i am very glad for you in that you were not treated to the same disapointment sa i. I also doubt if you lost as much money as I did at this place. Could you please tell me what car/cars they did a restoration on it absolutately was not that 41 Willy, I know to be a fact James Brown (ESPN) took his car out of there it is now in another place in Maryland. Bubba's does not do the interior work it is subbed out, body work subbed out, paint ect. subbed out. They claim to be a one stop shop for total restoration, this simply not true. They also claim to own a Paint & Body Shop, where the paint and body is done, again this is a bold face lie. The Paint & Body Shop is M & M Auto Body on Campbell Street, which they have no ownership of.
Sir, I am a business owner also, my company has been in business for over 50 years and I am telling you these people are crooks, yes they also fooled me too for a while. Just take sometime and go to a total restoration shop and you will see what I am talking about. When I hired Bubba's I was informed that they were a one stop shop, that they owned the shops that did all the work, that was a total lie. I after one year was told the car would be completed on at least five different occasions. My comments on this site is only to maybe help other people not to get ripped off as I did. However it appears to me that no one will except my unforturate experience with these people and stay away. This is only a small blog of the unbelievable events that happen during my 12 months of dealing with this place.

It's not a one stop shop.. I know for sure they send the cars down the street for body and paint work. And if James Brown took his cars and business away from Bubba I'm sure we can find the reason why.

my experience with bubba's... i called wanting to discuss the price of a top end rebuild on my smallblock c10. the price was outlandish but that is to be expected for that type of work, in this area, i guess. the cool thing was after tom realized i was not going to be able to afford his work he still chatted me up. i know he oversells the place and that can be a turn off but i was happy to hear he was going to put bubba on the phone and he was going to offer advice on my top end combo. i was stunned that he told me i should match my cam and intake mani?!?! he knew i had an edelbrock torker. to me this was bad advice. any rodder worth his weight in used motor oil knows that the selection of edelbrock cams is very very limited. but since he took the time to tell me and had his own rod business i called edelbrock and asked for the cam that best fit my application. they said that for my app they could not recommend a cam... edelbrock intakes are the most common aftermarket intakes in the world. i find it very hard to think he thinks all cars with edelbrock intakes should use edelbrock cams. that is poor advice. edelbrock cams are rarely ever used. i can't trust his advice but i can't fault him or his dad for speaking with me knowing they would not get any money. I can not speak to the work they do but i find it hard to imagine that these reviews are so polar. i would not be afraid to let them work on my ride as long as i told them the exact part combos to use. best of luck to these guys, their former and future clients, and their business.

Actually these guys are pretty damn good and they have all kinds of promotions and business ventures in the works as well as genuinely paying forward with their devotion to local charities and those that need an assist evey now and again. I have seen the cars they have created and it is obvious that they are a cut above their competition in both technical skills and creativity. Take it from someone that has looked through their operations with a keen eye and has taken advantage of their knowledge, customer service and technical can do attitude and follow through - the cars coming out of their shop are nothing short of amazing! Keep it up Bubba and Tom Lloyd. Proof of your abilities are simply evident in the classic cars you have crafted and resurrected.

The problem is they go INTO the shop in amazing condition and come out on a wrecker.

Or they get stripped in the parking lot waiting for Bubba and Tom to get back from the gym/tattoo parlor.

JB took his car to Ross' rods and kustoms/cedar park auto body. Two of them are there now. Ross' rods get a lot of work from pissed off bubba's customers. Take it to bubba's then take it to ross'rod to have it fixed right. The guys know that the EFI goes under the hood and not in the trunk....haha still in the box.

"waiting for Bubba and Tom" no joke there....

If only they actually worked on cars rather then working out and playing around customers would not get so pissed off

when questions come up as to why things take so long tom gets pissed and states "Bubba worked night and day on this"....really? then how do you explain the pics on his damn facebook site! Less dancing more work.

What is really amazing about this family owned and operated "old school" business right here in Fairfax is that Bubba himself gets involved with each and every project no matter how big or small. Yes he literally puts his mark on everthing managed through this top flight operation. The cars they renew are second to none and some say best in the business. Keep all this together and keep building Tom and Bubba and your work will continue to sparkle and your business will continue to fluorish.

Family owned? If that means Tom's daddy that's paying all the bills, I can go with that.

Of course he gets involved. He has to sell his bill of goods to the customer before they'll make the huge mistake of leaving their car there, right?

If by mark you mean a big ass plaque that claims Bubba did everything but build the car in Detroit or his autograph on your a/c compressor...then yeah, he leaves his mark on everything.

Keep building? Doesn't one need to start building something...anything, in order to keep building?

How about they start with the pile of junkers in the parking lot that have been there since..........well, since they "opened"?

can not be trusted. Lots of complaints of not working on the cars and doing sloppy work, rushing it at the end then claiming long hours spent and over charging. Seen issues where customers had more issues with car after "Bubba" messed with the car then before it was brought in. Looks like they dont care about lawsuits or unhappy customers either.

Always request the old tired parts back after all repairs so what you describe as a scam at my Bubbas is not likely and just a stab at what is a fine first rate hot rod garage right here in Fairfax! The Andreatos Brothers have utilized Bubbas for many many well publicised builds and projects. Their current Ptoject TV car that can be seen on their website is wicked wicked old school cool. If you are searching for the best just visit and talk through with Tom what you have nmind, the rest will take careof itself. They will bring you along like family.

World famous who?

I suppose it's about time bubba actually built something instead of just putting his name on it. Considering how fast the parking lot is clearing out of the "projects" that have been sitting there for years waiting to get done bubba style........they certainly have time on their hands.

The national tv would be....................Hoarders?

Well said dro's keeper. The crew at Bubbas ECR&Cs are obviously very good at what they do (I speak personally from good favorable experiences), bring great positive attention to Fairfax, they find the time and at their own expense to give back to their community and to those less fortunate. Tom, Bubba, and Pappo are old school and motivated by top shelf customer service and care at a fair price. And on top of all of this they are tops in restoring/repairing primarily American muscle and steel to be appreciated by those in the here and now and thereafter. Nothing that these negative Nellies can say will keep them from their mission and drive to reconstruct and save the soulful rides from Detroit's golden era. Keep on Keeping on Bubba and Tom and Pappo doing it Bubbas Style!!

It's exactly because of my love of American made iron that I can't stand the thought of Bubbas.

They're con men taking credit for others hard work, putting little effort into vehicles that are left there and then claim they've "built" awesome rides.

You call what they do free enterprise? I suppose in literal terms it is. They have an enterprise that cost them nothing. Tom's daddy maybe...but Tom and Bubba, not a dime.

A couple of tips for trying to con the public. In all the places you at Bubbas have gone on the internet to post your bullshit reviews from "unbiased" people, drop the award winning tv show crap.

Who cares about a tv show when they want something done to their car? It only goes to point out how your seeding review sites with total lies.

Your big plan to become the American Chopper of auto repair isn't going to work. Those guys actually have talent that they use and don't spend a lot of time lifting weights and getting tattoos.

I took my 1966 Mustang to Bubba’s East Coast Rods & Customs for a number of issues typical of a car that age. Walking into the shop for the first time is like running into old friends. These are all car guys and they are happy to talk with you about your car. After looking the car over, they found a number of problems of which I was unaware, including mis-installed bushings. Bubba’s fixed the bushings and all the engine and transmission leaks (including main seal and oil pan leaks). They gladly answered my endless questions and put the car on the lift for better demonstration. After taking the car home, I found the transmission was leaking in a different spot. Bubba’s fixed this too, kindly calling it a warranty problem. I would recommend this shop to anyone. These people know what they’re doing and they do it well. What more can you ask for?

WOW, i am sooooo glad i didnt bring my car to these dirtbag crooks,Ran into a friend that has a VW kit car that was brought to Bubbas last year,they charged him $800 to "supposedly tear his engine down" and put it back together,just to tell him it has a bad rod,Funny thing was..it had two stripped exhaust bolts and the oil pan still had dirt & rust on the bolts...So how do you tear an engine down in 1 day AND put it back together without removing an oil pan?..You cant.

Truth is anyone supporting them only has to do one thing to prove what kind of thieves they are..take your receipt to a legit shop and have them go over the bill and part numbers..all you supporters will be very surprised.

Upon further investigation,it seems they have a history of doing this to people,very soon thier world will be brought down around their fraudulent necks!!!!!!!

Your a complete fraud.You say you built a top notch Puke green and pumpkin orange roadster and it was SEMA quality?..Thats funny the Andreatis brothers couldnt wait to sell it...in fact they took a loss at @70K just to be rid of that rolling joke,Whats next?...Oh thats right..your spreading a HUGE bullshit story about your taking American Choppers spot on Discovery channel?...That would never happen..That had a great reputation at that got them on Discovery,You have a crap reputation and you can never with all your thieving and fraudulent transactions erase any of your bad deeds. Good thing you didnt get on car warriors..that would have been an even bigger disaster,You dont have a body shop..or an interior shop,,or an audio department..your a glorified parts changing company.Let me ask you..what is it you bring to the table Tom?..You dont even know the difference between a 350 and a 454..you looked at my chevelle and thought it was a 350..So what is it exactly that you do? Besides makeup fraudulent bills for work that was never done,people that get screwed by you both the hardest are the people who pick their cars up at the end of the month,because you need to pay rent utilities car loans etc..i feel sorry for those people..

Tom, don't take this the wrong way. I am just trying to be constructive. When you guys opened up you had a pretty good thing. Good location in a very wealthy county with a lot of disposable income. You had a business plan that should have worked. So what went wrong? My definition of wrong is when 85 percent of the mainstream NOVA classic car owners won't use your services. That's pretty bad. In my opinion, your dreams of you and Bubba becoming stars, was the beginning of the end. That took your eye off the target. Fixing cars became a stepchild and nothing more than a means to an end. All you ever talked about was the tv show and Bubbas awards. If you had just stuck to cars none of this would be happening. What made you thing your customers would appreciate your desire to be tv stars. None of your customers thought that this was good for them. All the time you and Bubba spent on trying to be famous just took time and focus away from their cars being fixed. It might have worked, however, you have alienated most of the classic car community. Tom, to have a successful business you need to exceed the expectations of every customer. Everyone needs to walk out of your shop feeling happy that they chose to do business with you. Tom you have failed miserably with the most important component for a successfully business. Your preoccupation with muscles and tattoos are really ridiculous. You guys really are trying so hard to look the part but the fundamental components for success are missing. I don't know if anyone has told you this before but you guys don't have good personalities for tv. You are not particularly likable and Bubba does not seem particularly bright and does not seem to possess a personality of any kind. Wearing sunglasses, crossing your arms while showing tattoos only can carry you so far. Watching your award winning cable show was painful and amazingly amateurish. It was pointless. Sorry Tom, the truth hurts. I don't know what to tell you. You have really shot yourself in the foot on so many levels. I actually feel bad for Bubba. I bet all he ever wanted to fix cars. You were most likely the one who lead your shop in this direction. His dream might be pretty well shot it appears. The only answer might be start from scratch, do nothing but fix cars give up being famous, say your sorry to the community and make your customers whole. I don't see how you can pull out of this tailspin. It's hard enough for businesses to succeed even when everyone is perfect. Bad business plan Tom and a good lesson to be learned.

Humm..pretty good critique "The truth hurts" of what may have happened here over the last couple of years although there are still some that would argue with you otherwise that they did receive good customer service and the results of their projects DID exceed the initial expectations. Perhaps the real problem is the CONSISTENCY of delivering top quality and on time performance for ALL of their customers with NO favoritism or special treatment. Still many good thing happening there in gasoline alley and I believe the business will carry on well enough and IF they can adjust some of their expectations as you describe the business will carry along and and perhaps prosper (good raw talent still exists room for improvement though) I will make sure the "Trinity" group reads your evaluation and establishes a punch list for improvement.

Tammy, thanks for comments. From a business perspective, I think the problems are quite deep and the damage done will be quite hard to reverse. Honestly, they brought this upon themselves. They totally missed the boat on what it takes for a business to be successful.Is it possible for them to survive?....they need to determine what their business is, cars or tv. Trying to do both has not worked at all. If cars are their future they will have to overcome their poor reputation in the classic car community. In my opinion it would take five years of being a truly outstanding company for people in this community to forgive and forget and give them a second chance......maybe....personally I would have trouble going back ever, .....it's not like there are no other places to bring classic cars.They really need some good advice to try and repair the severe damage
That has been done . It's a classic up hill battle for sure

From a business perspective, given their talents and expertise it is certainly entirely possible to do both and have a successful repair and restoration facility along with their missive of marketing themselves appropriately as strong, ethical and colorful personalities which complements their business intentions quite well. I believe your objectivity here on FFCU is not aligned to deliver favorable advice but to continue to propagate the counter productive dialog of just these malcontent blogggers that I believe are the MINORITY opinion on the overall performance of BECR&Cs. This business chosen is a very difficult and fickle one when it comes to the survey of the entire customer base as there will always be those with bad intentions and perhaps some resentment of their success. Unfortunately a bad commentary of today's self absorbed society. Whatever the case would you be willing to share the experience you had there that has resulted in your opinion that they are on the wrong path and should give up their desire to soldier on regardless of whatever negativity is thrown their way in the internet "Badlands"?

Of course it's possible to do both, however, that has not worked out for you in my opinion. If you actually think that you have successfully marketed yourselves as "strong,colorfull and ethical" then this could be part of the problem. In terms of me being objective, you are incorrect. This is why the truth hurts. It's your ego, arrogance and paranoia that has lead you to this juncture. Instead of believing that this is constructive criticism , you think that "someone is out to get you". In terms of you thinking that people are jealous of your success.....this is part of the problem. I don't know of anyone in the classic car community who would be jealous of your "success"...quite to contrary ....lastly, I never said don't "soldier on" I said constructively, it's an uphill battle. You need to follow the lead of dominos pizza and how they turned their business around. Enough free advice

Just as I thought NO specific example or bad experience to be shared!

And yes you are correct that their strategy is NOT mutually exclusive and that their dedication shall persist and be amply rewarded as they continue to push forward - for those with patience on the right side the rewards will be great! Happy New Years Tom, Bubba, Papo, and Layla!

I have a Great idea! how about all the grown ups go back to the real world and we spend more time doing better for our community, children and planet, rather then sit on here and talk a bunch of stuff and waste our time. Im going to keep an open mind this year. God bless all good and bad, fate is in gods hands.

Hey 703 Homeland , Dont Waste your time waiting for Tommy B to give you a shop name that doest exsist, Reason Being "Tommy B" AKA Sonny or Vincent DeCicco is a con and is using multiple aliases to attack local business's . He may want pay more attention to himself and his felony warrants which can be confirmed through the virgina state police. If you guys on the underground want to really see some hack job work, go see what sonny slapped together on a pontiac convertible that virginia police took down to bubbas to get repaired after sonny screwed it all up.

Hey there 703 Homeland, I would recommend that you consider taking that Goat of yours to Bubbas ECR&C. Go out there yourself in person and talk to Tom and Bubba and discuss what you have in mind for your cherished classic. Tom, Bubba, and Papo are some really great people that run their car and bike care business with the customer's needs first and foremost (check out their website or FaceBook page) and then the rest takes care of itself.

From personal experience, I am very happy that I found them and their services are top notch and unlike their competition they stand behind their work 100% with a courteous smile and friendly handshake. "Old School" ethics and integrity they are the best at what they do and right here in Fairfax County! Get your Goat done Bubbas Style!

Unbelievable but then again we are dealing with Tom and Bubba. It would appear that they are actively planning to bolt to Fla very soon to escape their very dubious reputation here in Fairfax. Feel sorry for all the poor devils they have "serviced" over the years as now they will have to NO fall back when their cars start to seize up and their paint jobs start to flake away and the HR garage has suddenly disappeared. Of course the creditors will be SOL and those with cars in mid disrepair will probably have nothing to retrieve as "Bubbas Style"! Cannot say we did not warn you!

Fairfax Times went to go check the story of Bubba's Hot Rod Shop leaving the area.
Their shop has been an icon in the Fairfax City area for almost ten years now. They are still one of the best group of guys we have ever come across.
One thing is for certain, we have done our due diligence and these local community hero's who were filming their new TV show stopped to spend some time with us and welcome us into their facility again.
Rest assured they are not going anywhere nor leaving the Fairfax City area.
They consider this home and are very proud of it.
They did confirm that plans had been submitted to Fairfax City by the property management company, Combined Properties to renovate the shopping center they are located in at Fairfax Circle Plaza sometime in the next 3 to 5 years.
As much as they call this home they are heart broken that they will have to look for a new home in Fairfax City eventually.
They have no plans to start looking anytime soon because they know all to well how things can change.
When asked if they would consdier moving their business outside of Fairfax City they responded that the City is and always will be their home and there is no way that would change.
They did share the excitment of the opening of their new south Florida location which will compliment the Virginia location which has been in the planning stages for the last 4 years.
They realize what a challenge filming a new TV show and running two facilities will be but they will make it a success just like everything they do.
We wish them all the continued success they so richly deserve.
You will see by the pictures we took during our visit with a time and date stamp that Bubbas East Coast Rods & Customs is certainly a very busy facilty and a bee hive of activity.
They won't be going anywhere anytime soon.
Do yourself a favor and stop in to meet the great crew at Bubbas.
I promise you will be glad you did!

Tom and Bubba have worked on my car on and off for 6 years.The quality of workmanship,their pricing and service is above standard.The pricing of the parts and labor are reasonable.I have priced out parts and labor from other companies and the other companies were always more expensive.
I highly recommend these guys to anybody,and I have, to all friends and family,they to have been satisfied with the work.
By the way I was at the shop today, there were no U hauls or trailers and all the equipment was in the shop. I was watching them drop a new engine in my car, because the one time I took my car to another shop the guy stole my engine.
These guys are professional,personable and just nice guys including their staff.

I can chime in with my experience at Bubba's.

I have a 1956 Buick Special that i was looking to get some work done on. Initially, i simply wanted it checked out for road-worthiness and to have any important parts that needed replacing replaced. When i sat down to talk to Tom, he was a nice guy, talked with me in depth about my car and what i wanted to do, and assured me i'd get what i wanted there. So i decided to work with them. Dropped the car off and waited for them to call me with what they found and an estimate.

And i waited. And waited. And kept on waiting. A little over two months later, i called them to see what the story was. They told me to come in later that week, and when i got there, i was given a list of things they'd like to do. It was a generic list of putting on a new carb, new exhaust, and a bunch of new shiny parts that weren't at all what i was asking for. All in all, they were talking 10 grand for this list of upgrades i didn't bring the car in for.

I should have figured it out then and split. But i just declined all that, and asked for what i wanted originally. So i waited more. And again, after a couple of months, i called to see what the story was, because i hadn't heard anything from them. They said they were working on it, and they'd get back to me in a couple days. They did, and said they were going to replace most of the brake lines in the rear, put new wires and plugs in, adjust the brakes and rebuild / replace the master cylinder. Pretty expensive, all in all.

When i picked it up, the car wouldn't start. Left it at the shop, it was diagnosed as a bad generator. They said they rebuilt it. Went to pick it up again, car wouldn't start. Left it again, diagnosed as a bad starter. They had me over a barrel, so i got them to "fix" these things, then drove the car home (after a jump) and cut my losses.

Now, i should have known something was up. Because the master cylinder on a 1956 Buick is a one-off design for that year. And rebuild kits are expensive, nevermind replacing it entirely. They clearly did not touch the master cylinder. I've torn the front end and engine down now, and i realize that most of the work they claim to have done was not actually done. They did replace brake lines, but they didn't touch the generator, or the starter at all. I doubt they did more than a cursory inspection before sending me a very large bill.

To be fair, a lot of this is on me for not doing my due diligence when looking for a shop. I prefer talking to people in person to reading reviews online. However, after hearing other people talk about being ripped off, i do believe they fleece their customers and charge for work and parts that don't exist. It's a shame, there are very few good shops that work on classics these days, and this one seems to be run by crooks. I hope you guys get what's coming to you in a major way.

If you want your old Buick done up "Bubbas Style" or any classic car for that matter) then there is no other choice than to take it to Tom and Bubba there at the Hot Rod garage conveniently located here in Fairfax City with another facility opening up soon in Florida. These guys are really really good at what they can do for you and that is why they call this automotive prodigy "The Master". Enough said on this subject?

From the looks of your past works and phony-ass paid-for-awards (US Commerece Association... ZOMFG... you're killing us!), I'd say anyone is better off getting Jiffy Lube to take care of them.

Looking for a good place to do proper restoration on a 57 Chevy here in Northern VA. Do these folks really do it all body, paint, interior, and mechanical on these rare classics? Looks like they have won several awards (have trophys on their FaceBook from recent car show) and have their own cable TV show much like the American Chopper or Jessie James? Any close experience with this shop and any feedback regarding their work would be appreciated. Thank You

If they would focus on cars instead of all the other stuff they would probably be world famous by now. Instead it seems like cars are just an excuse for them to talk about.

Tv shows
TV show cars
tattoos
muscles
pin-up girl
Florida shops
dogs
I’m sure I forget some

They seemed obsessed with becoming famous but as someone mentioned before the personalities for TV just aren’t there. If you look at some of the old "tv shows" the shenanigans were so forced that it was uncomfortable to watch. So guys focus on the cars and maybe your day will come.

They will work on just about anything to keep their necks above water but realized this was a losing battle at best. Now they plan to leave Fairfax under cloak of darkness and start up again in FLA where their hit/miss reputation may not follow them. Good luck with that!

Tom's father is locked and LOADED and no doubt funds Bubbas Shenanighans. My read on all this is that they vacate VA and FLEE to FLA soon to join the old Man in FLA. Their run here in FairFax certainly had its ups and downs. Some good efforts But many here wanted to disrupt their reputation due to customer (dis)satisfaction or envy of their limited success. Best of luck for them as the boy is pretty good with old cars.

That's a little harsh as I believe they have NO actual criminal records to my knowledge. Perhaps they cut a few corners and inflate their resto and repair estimates but these practices are found throughout the auto repair service industry. I believe they are leaving for FLA very soon to start over and hope they can regain their footing and reputation. Folks that have their cars there or recently repaired should take action otherwise they will be hating life when they come to Bubbas and find it simply shuttered in place.

Tom, this blog site has been basically 70 percent saying bad things about Bubbas east coast and the balance good. I would suspect that most of the good was by your hand one way or the other. I do suspect that you do have some happy customers. I think that most of us believe that Bubba does have mechanical ability. This blog site did not really address his ability. It was more about philosophy and ethics. You know better than anyone you have a lot of unhappy customers. You can feel it at the shows. In the early stages of Bubbas, people were talking about your operation in an ok fashion. Then word spread and most of the talk was angry and negative. And now, people don't talk about you or recommend you. For those of u who has good experiences at Bubbas, that's great, but don't think that tho ones who didn't are not large in numbers.

Seriously Bubba is great with exhaust systems and their Body and Paint man is excellent. The problem is that these two cannot be assigned on all the cars they mess with and are spread very thin and most unsuspecting customers end up with their less seasoned crew sometimes learning on the job as they go along. Whatever the case, best luck with your new FLA operations. You had a pretty good run while here in Fairfax!

Kinda ashamed as some of the stuff Tom and Bubba turn out is pretty damn good depending on what they choose and care to focus on. Messing around with old rusty temperamental classics is a tough business without a doubt filled with lofty expectations. If we only had the equipment and skill and time to do it ourselves, that would be Ideal. Leap of faith when we "farm it out" to these "needy" shops that promise the impossible. Perhaps the best advice is to find an operation that has earned favorable reviews which reflect a trustworthy and ethical experience NOT one that is anyway involved in a pattern of lawsuits, threats, and just plain bad PR and BS from the principles. Too many greedy crooks out there ready to take the Old car Enthusiast on a long expensive and often disappointing RIDE! BUYER BEWARE!

It would appear that Bubbas operation has left the area and has now somehow reestablished themselves in Florida. Their reputation here in Fairfax was hit or miss at best. I wonder what was left behind there at the old facility? The parking lot outside their facility here in Fairfax was littered with many vintage cars that from what I could gather were customers that left them some deposit "Up Front" and were then left out there in the parking lot to pretty much rot. What an operation they had going on. Too bad the classic car folks in FLA may not be aware of all that happened while they were here in VA especially if Bubbas has changed their name down there to distance themselves from the not so flattering reviews that can be found with a simple GOOGLE search! Let the consumer beware!

Humm Guess they have left Fairfax for good then? Will be hard to replace the Master Bubba with all his knowledge and expertise related to these old vintage cars. Guess I could have my car flat bedded to Jupiter Florida to get the Master to perform the service? Maybe I could get to see them film their Acclaimed TV show there in FLA? They say it is Done "Bubbas Style"!

Tom and the Master Bubba as the Co-owners run the show at both Florida and Fairfax locations! They have a key member of their team Rob Miraminy running the day to day operations of their successful Fairfax Hot Rod Garage.

Doing it Rob and Bubba Style!

Unfortunately you just cannot please everyone especially with these old vintage Temperamental autos. Perhaps it was already Fkd Up before he Master Bubba had his chance to resurrect it and Do It Bubbas Style??

Whatever the case, the Hot Rod Shop they started here in Fairfax was successful enough for them to launch a SECOND Hot Rod operation down in Jupiter FLA! Check out their Website:

Now serving TWO locations on the East Coast both in Jupiter FLA AND Fairfax. Starting to wonder if they have plans to Franchise their successful chain of Hot Rod Shops across the country?

My experience: paid $800 to get rust cut out and repaired on frame and four tires moved to a new set of wheels and installed on car. A little pricey I guess, but I wanted the thing to pass inspection and the frame was the last thing I needed to pass inspection. For good measure, they sent me to a good place. I never met Tom or Bubba, barely know they exist (I hear about their show, but have no idea where or when it airs). I dealt primarily with Rob, and saw a couple other folks working there the couple times I showed up. One of my wheels wasn't holding air (I got em used at Carlisle for $75 altogether) and had them fix it. charged me a little bit of nothing (like $30 or something) and said if it leaks again within a year, they'll take care of it. It just started leaking again last week, so I'm gunna try to take it back. I liked Rob, some of the other guys seemed like the typical mechanic demographic: kinda run-down lookin. That doesn't bother me a ton, but it didn't look like a group of guys who were passionate about their trade. Regardless, I had a good experience with Rob and despite the fact that their credit card machine seemed to be down about every time I went in there, they seemed pretty transparent about what they were charging me for. Maybe it's cause I gave the impression that I knew stuff about cars (because I do most of my own work, but have no experience with welding or painting, and don't have the tools to mount tires to wheels) or perhaps that I'm on a tight budget (I'm only 23 and hadn't yet graduated when I brought it in back in March). I don't know, I give the place a 75/100 I guess. I wouldn't give any other place any better really. They all charge more than it would cost to do yourself, they all markup materials (not that I needed materials) and frankly if you're expecting them to do something you're not comfortable with doing yourself, then you're risking them not doing it to the level of perfection or precision that you're looking for in your vehicle.

I would consider myself satisfied, I'll be more satisfied if when I ask about fixing the wheel that they'll honor their claim of a putting the wheel work under warranty (since receipts are basically the equivalent of a fast food receipt, with even less description, and it was only a verbal promise). My hopes is that if Rob can really be the one to run the place, he could probably turn around the place's appalling image. I haven't seen anything forthright to concern me, and I'd like to think I'm a pretty perceptive guy, but this is pretty much the first location of anything anywhere that I actually feel unnerved by the number of reviews. I can't tell who's lying or who's telling the truth, and whether all the negativity is coming from just one customer, or multiple, or if it's a combination of a customer and ex-employee, I don't know. It's crazy complex, and since I got into old cars on my own, I don't know anyone personally who has ever known anything about the place other than there's a bunch of old cars parked out front. But this is the demographic of people who calls them "cool cars," whereas I'd refer to the majority of those sitting out there as either husks, or cars in need of urgent medical attention.

I do wish all of this negativity when speaking about the place cleared up so I could just know the facts. 1 star on Yelp with 15 of the 19 reviews hidden due to low-ratings of the reviews themselves... it's terribly fishy and it's apparent that at least one person has a shit ton of time to be working so hard to attack this place, regardless of whether it's warranted or not.

Thanks for sharing your experience Paul. I would agree that it is hit or miss with these old temperamental Vintage cars when it comes to the repairs and those that want to venture into this finicky business. Unfortunately the Bubbas Work Shop here in Fairfax has had more BAD reviews over the years than good both here on the Internet and by Word of Mouth. In Fact a lot of us in the Old Car Hobby here feel Tom and Bubba left the area for Jupiter Florida (Fled?) to try again with their Repair Shop Concept and somehow get a fresh start from perhaps Hard lessons learned from all this grief and negativity they attracted while doing business here in Fairfax prior to their Departure. Good Luck with that!

Whatever the case, these problems and bad experiences here in Fairfax unfortunately were Real and pissed off a lot of folks they came into contact with through their operation royally! So your thoughts that this "Negativity" and poor internet reviews perhaps were coming from just one or two people is certainly not the case. "You Reap what what you Sow" applies directly to how Tom and Bubba conducted Business here in Fairfax. "Hit or miss" with more problems and questionable ethics and behavior than successes.

As for Rob picking up where Tom and Bubba left off, sounds like he too has learned in a good way from their multiple mistakes BUT also realize that their current location here in Fairfax is a Temporary one as that strip mall they occupy will very soon be leveled for "Development"!

Would Anyone else here on the Fairfax Underground like to share their experiences both good and bad with Bubbas East Coast Rods and Customs here in Fairfax?

I live in Jupiter, Florida and was in the Hot Rod business long before it became popular on reality TV. Never heard of Bubba until I drove by their new shop here and saw the sign. So, being curious and having a garage full of cars I stopped in to meet the new guys in town. I first met Bubba who seemed ok but a bit young. Then I met Tom and within ten minutes knew I was in the presence of a world class bull shitter that I would never trust or let work on one of my cars. I then googled them to see what's up and came across this forum which pretty much confirmed my initial opinion.

Jupiter is a small town of 50 K people. It's full of wealthy retired folks that don't need to work and have plenty of money to indulge their automotive desires. We also have a number of pretty good specialty shops that can and do turn out some pretty amazing cars. If Bubba doesn't keep his nose clean here he won't be around long. His reputation from Fairfax has followed him here and rumors are already floating around about people being unhappy, cops being called, cars removed by owners and rent not being paid.

What we really don't need is another scam artist turning people away from the hobby we all enjoy. It will only be a matter of time in a small community like Jupiter.

Interesting Developments down there in Jupiter regarding Bubbas new Rod and Custom Shop. I understand they were recently featured in the Local Newspaper which sounds like good and positive press. Hope they have learned their lessons in Good Customer Service from all the issues that they left behind here in Fairfax. They claim that Young Bubba is one of the Best Builders in the Hot Rod and Custom Industry. Whatever the case, keep us posted on how things are going there both good and bad. Their new reality TV program on the Velocity Channel should be very revealing to say the least!

Yes, they did get a nice write up in the Palm Beach Post that was very positive as well as doing some nice promotional and marketing moves that have put them on the local radar. Tom is apparently a non stop marketing machine with a lot of practice convincing gullible people to believe what he says. The writer that wrote the story I believe is an independent writer that submitted the article to the paper and they printed it. The only thing the article forgot to include was, "advertisement" above the headline.

Whatever,, if they. Can do quality work at competitive prices and provide good customer service they'll do just fine here. There's plenty of business despite being a small town. If they don't , word will spread quickly and they won't be here long. Their history has followed them to some degree and people are cautious.

Perhaps the Repair and Restoration Shops there in Jupiter have met there match in this Master Bubba? The Velocity Channel must see something very special with this Father and Son Team to give them their own very special TV Show Hot Rod Reality! Go to their Web Site to see Photos of this Pre Production Filming!

Master car builder my ass. How do you become, "one of the top five car builders in the country", at the age of 24? Only in his fathers eyes. His work and knowledge are below average IMO.

Try and find an episode of their TV show on Velocity. It doesn't exist. He's got plenty of Youtube videos but so does every other car builder out there. Big difference between a real TV show and Youtube videos. They've been talking up their non existant TV show for so long even they believe it.

If they spent more time building cars than they do going to the gym, tatto parlor, and bragging about a TV show they desperately want, their work would speak for itself and there would be no need for the constant BS.

I truly wish them success but doubt they will acheive it without a TV show. They may become reality stars but they will never become car builder stars with the type of work they do. There are many fine automotive craftsman and coach builders in the country but Bubba isn't one of them. At least not yet and until he builds something of such quality that it wins a major national show like the L.A. Roadster Show. Until then, he isn't working on any of my cars and isn't one of the top five builders in the country. LMAO

You make a valid point that it is not likely that Bubba is in that Elite Group of Car Builders in this country (obviously!) and that statements such as this are simply in the "mind" of his Dad Tom. Oh well, Guess it is Tom that is the Master of Marketing and obviously there are plenty of gullible people with these old cars that want to believe this!

You are right about their "TV Show" as well since there exists NO connection with their "Hot Rod Reality"and the Velocity Channel (or any other Cable Network for that matter!).

Looks like we have a Father Son Team that Builds themselves up and their accomplishments Greatly with No facts to substantiate these lofty claims.

These types of "Shady" activities are what caused them so many problems here in Fairfax and no doubt led to them Fleeing to Florida to let them start with a clean slate BUT it appears they have not learned their lessons and continue to operate as they did before. Keep us posted on their antics and let's hope the folks down there in Jupiter do their due diligence and research Before deciding to sign on with Bubba and Tom!

Without Bubbas expertise NOT likely those technicians left behind could achieve the previous high level they had there before? Any one have any recent experience to share related to repairs there now that Bubba has gone south? Is Papo their Body and Paint Foreman here in Fairfax or down there with Bubba and Tom in Florida?

Makes me wonder if they got off to a much better start down there in the Lucrative Palm Beach Florida Collector Car Market with the new Bubbas Hot Rod Shop. Plenty of Big money for Tom to "Farm In" with their new Jupiter Enterprise.

Interesting that they can start fresh with a clean slate after all the missteps, Bad Reviews, and Customer Service Dissatisfaction that Plagued them over the years here in Fairfax before they bolted to Florida. Who the heil is Bankrolling all these ventures for Tom and Bubba?

Is the shop here in Fairfax still open? Their location's strip mall is soon to go under the Wrecking ball for future Development.

Again, it would be interesting to be a "Fly on Wall" down there in Florida to see if they changed their way of doing business for the better. They can only relocate so many times before their reputation catches up with them.

So it's Bubba and Tom's style to move to a smaller space on the back of a building that barely has an alley? You've "expanded" like Obama fixed the economy.

Enjoy the view but long term plans are to level that entire street too and start over.

However, congratulations on being the only business in that entire building (of which there are a lot) that speaks English. Bubba speak is English isn't it?

Kinda Sad considering this Fairfax "Gasoline Alley" was once the Home base and National Headquarters for the East Coast's premier car, truck & motorcycle facility with a top rated radio show and their new Hot Rod Reality TV show was about to begin airing.

In addition, Tom and Bubba's Fairfax Hot Rod Shop was voted number 1 by the US Commerce Association for the last 4 years in a row and they were inducted into the Business Hall of Fame.

What could have happened to Bubba and his one time Small Business Success? How could they have fallen so quickly? Baffling.

Husband surprised me by taking my 69 Firebird to be painted. When he took me to Bubbas to pick it up even I could see poor work Paint runs, door jams not painted, convertible top mis-cut. The guy wouldn't talk to me only husband. Left it to be redone, went back, still crappy. Said well it isn't a $10,000 job! So I posted a factual negative yelp comment. They called husband and told him I need to take it down. He laughed and said he doesn't tell me what to do! They called and I had picked up phone, the guy started out by telling me how they did offer to fix it. I replied yeah but still had baddddd areas like runs which is a reflection of poor job, I hung up. Then they called back and threatened to sue me, go ahead I said. Called again and supposedly was an "an attorney" I told him go for it take me to court. I am retired on SS and have lots of time oh my hands. Never heard back! Wish I had know about their crappy service for the average guy! Glad they are gone, sorry Jupiter!!

Surprised that many of their customers they swindled did not turn around and sue them for their eventual Heartache and financial damages!

Unfortunately I too was taken for a ride by Tom when he got a hold of my car and kept jacking up the fees until I threatened legal action against them. Happy that they are no longer viable here in Fairfax and have left the state. Probably the folks in Jupiter have to learn the hard way as these guys are not going to change their stripes.

I too was a victim of Bubba's Fairfax,VA facility.The trans in my '86 Vette went down on the 4th of July 2015.It took me two months to get my car back.The trans supplier had recommended them,he was quite surprised when I called him.The trans supplier and a local trans repair shop took over and I finally got my car back.I just had a Borla stainless exhaust installed , Bubba's broke a manifold stud and replaced it with a bolt and miss aligned the entire system.They ran the car into their lift arm putting a hefty scratch and leaving matching paint.The trans shop cleaned off the paint and did a fair job in aligning the exhaust.So,the trans supplier paid the bill of the local trans shop and I made friends with those guys as I stopped at the local Harley shop and they were there.Car runs and shifts good. Got dual warranties from the trans supplier and Farfax trans repair shop.I'm going to ask Tom for some reimbursement. I'd like the exhaust put straight and the body work done.Hope I have a better outcome than most of these posts.

That is ashamed. Surprised they still have an operation here in Fairfax after they shut down their original place in that back alley behind the Strip Mall. My guess is that their current team without Bubba is a bunch of beginners who will learn on the job through trial and error. Would explain the bad experience you had with your classic Corvette. Looks like you were able to get it back in shape at the trans Shop. Good luck with Tom helping you out with your exhaust and the body work and hoping he will make it right for you. Please keep us posted on the outcome.

Anyone have knowledge of what is going on down there in Florida? Are they still in business? Makes you wonder.

Be very weary of any business that has recognition from the "US Commerce Association." This is a cam group that gives accolades to any business will to pay a fee. You can find more details about it at bbb.org.

So, I think this implies that Bubba's was either naive and/or dishonest in its business and that has ultimately contributed to it's upheaval.

Hard to believe they had (now have?) a Reality show on the Velocity Channel though. Or is this Hogwash as well?

Progress yes but sad to see the old Bubbas Facility finally go. Great memories for me and the crew out back there in "Gasoline Alley". It is where we filmed our award winning Hot Rod reality Show. Memories.

Everyone knows the Deal. Tom and his c level mechanic son ran off to florida to live the fancy life on someone elses dime. I worked for these slime balls about 6 years ago for less than 6 months and could not take the bullshit lies. Anything that would get done Tom would make bubba take credit for it, They would lie to people and tell them they built cars they put a low end tune up on. They were basically forced out of town and have become the laughing stock of Northern Virginia. I have never in my life seen such over priced work if thats what you want to call it.They are rip off artists, treat employees like shit. His daughter was in and out of jail for years, and does not know the automotive industry. finally an end to the rotten thieves. C.

After all these years back there on Gasoline, Alley Tom and Bubba have finally been caught red Handed! Imagine taking 50K from a Vietnam War Veteran's widow! Shameful!

They probably sold off her vintage GTO and used the money and her stolen 50K to make their move to Jupiter Fla!

No doubt many others have been bilked and cheated by BHR&Cs!

looks like this will turn out to be a misunderstanding and a big mistake. Bubbas is high volume and handles a lot of customs and restorations and it is not uncommon that one or two cars will slip through the cracks.

let's just let this case run it's course and not be so quick to judge Tom and Bub.

Not uncommon for your shop maybe.

Meanwhile every other shop in the country takes the hit for it.

It's absolutely amazing that in this day and age of electronic information that you are even allowed to look at any car in public. Much less let "one or two" slip through the cracks.

I watched the South Beach Classics episode that included Bubbas & the 57 T-bird. Like a train wreck just couldn't turn away. Three take aways from the Bubbas portion of the show:

1st - when asked about the budget by Ted, Bubba states they plan to "eat" anything over the budget. That's easy to do when you take money for parts & labor you have not nor intend to perform.

2nd - there was genuine surprise in Bubbas voice when he stated "we finally finished one on time". Clearly not something they are accustomed to doing evidenced by the overflow of cars rusting away in the parking lot in Fairfax.

3rd - Bubba stated he had "XYZ" (don't remember who) install and this is a direct quote from the show - "A 400 horsepower transmission". I had to flip back 3 times to verify what he said because I was laughing so hard. I guess more importantly Master Bubba was able to convince the producers & editors that the transmission has 400HP because they left it in.

I will say on TV the car looked good but anything can happen on TV - think David Blaine levitating. Ted even stated it did not need a restoration. So a color change, interior & a purple engine is doing it Bubba Style.

You all have to admit Tom and Bub looked pretty damn good on the Velocity Channel with Ted Vernon's South Beach Classics! Our dream of Reality TV Stars with rave reviews. Velocity has offered us our own show "If YOU Dream It Bubbas Can Build It"

What was done with Bucky Dent's T-Bird is what we call a "Frame On" Restoration! Master Bubbas is one of the few in the industry that is capable of doing this technique. The car speaks for itself!

Doing it Bubbas and South Beach Style!

You are obviously affiliated with Bubbas. Can you explain what Master Bubba did to make a "400 horsepower transmission"? I am certain wheels, paint & upholstery does not take a $35K car to $200K - I don't care how many times Bubba signs it. True & correct E-birds sell for half that much.

"What was done with Bucky Dent's T-Bird is what we call a "Frame On" Restoration! Master Bubbas is one of the few in the industry that is capable of doing this technique"

What Master bater - oops Master Bubba did was not restoration of any kind - frame on or off. He painted a car, threw a set of modern wheels on it & new interior - most likely subbed out the paint & upholstery to an outside shop. There are tens of thousands of donkey d*cks that can do that. Maybe this is where some of the issues are with Bubbas East Coast Rods & Customs, selling a paint job as a restoration & overcharging customers - raising their expectations & delivering a sub-standard product. Saying nothing about taking money & never doing the work, using customer supplied parts on other projects etc. Get over your selves.

Keep dreaming Paul Sr & Paul Jr. At least the OCC guys turned out a decent product.

These investigations may lead to nothing conclusive other than some eager overselling by Tom and the unrealistic expectations for customers that are impossible to please thinking that Old cars can be exhumed and magically become Factory Fresh turn key after forty years.

The authorities most likely will discover no fraud or criminal activity was the case here with Tom and Bub. Unhappy customers will have to pursue civil cases to recoup any monetary loses or just let it go and put it behind them.

Bottom line is that Bubba and Tom will continue to Prosper at their Hot Rod Shops in both Lucrative Jupiter and with their daughter/sister here at the Fairfax Shop.

Tom and Bub will go on to their Reality TV Careers which seems to be taking off right now.

Sometimes bad people get jealous and green with envy of other folks successes and just cannot see and accept their good deeds and hard work rewarded,

To actually think that the classic car community in northern Virginia, honest hardworking people, are envious of them and their stellar business model.....There success on velocity is doubtful. The successful shows seem to have people with likeable personalities.....Tom is completely arrogant and un likable.....and bubba is void of any personality whatsoever.

Just trying to stay objective unlike You who cannot miss the chance to bad mouth the Lloyds. The results thus far support the facts and Tom and Bub have worked hard to establish two custom Hot Rod shops in Faifax and Jupiter and have a third in the works opening soon in the Carolinas. Also the Velocity channel and Ted Vernon believe that this Father and son team have the talent and personality to succeed as reality TV stars. Give it a rest and let them be!

What does a two year old paid advertisement have to do with taking money on several cars and not performing the contracted work?

Just because the original news story only mentioned one car that doesn't mean there aren't dozens more. And there are.

In fact, taking money and not doing the work is what they are most famous for. Show us one car, just one that the brilliant artist and his p.r. genius father have built from the ground up. Just one .And I don't mean putting a billboard on other people's work.

I just wanted to take a moment to respond to Mot Sabbub's Posts above :


To start off with I would like to say thank you for your refreshing and objective posts.

However, please allow me to address one item.

To the dismay of many, Bubba is very much a STAR and his TV show is NOT limited simply to the Fairfax and Jupiter FLA local areas. Bubbas TV show won the Silver TELLY for 2009 giving it top honors which is on display here in our lobby in Jupiter. With a verified 11 million weekly viewers, Hot Rod Reality was just introduced in 55 of 72 counties in Pennsylvania AND 3 counties in Los Angeles, Ca. which should bring him into the neighborhood of approximately 15 million weekly viewers!

Additionally, he was just moved from a 12:30pm Sunday prime time slot to 5 nights a week during prime time in preparation for and pre promotion of a major network deal with Ted Vernon and the Velocity Channel that was recently struck. His technical Auto Crafting and Fabricating work is featured in MANY industry magazines and he was just featured on CBS AND several other newspapers this last 6 weeks! Please take a look at our website and you will see it all posted on pages 1 & 2 of the HOME page.

And finally Bubba was just named 1 of the top 5 classic car/hot rod,Exotic builders by an industry print magazine. Yes, Bubba is very much a STAR so lets be exceedingly clear about that!

That said Bubba is a very humble young man with immeasurable God given talent whose work clearly speaks for itself and if you would like to personally experience his work please come visit us in Jupiter Florida and maybe you can meet Burt Reynolds and Ted Vernon filming inside our Hot Rod Shop!

When you see the quality of work and craftsmanship of all the carss Bubbas has crafted your friggin jaw will drop.

Keeping it real,legal, and staying humble....thats "Doin' It Bubba Style"!

-Tom

Nobody down here in Jupiter cares or is aware of any pending criminal case against Tom and Bub. Life goes on and their repair business remains firm and lively. We have a pretty cool place to hang out there with these guys inside their "VIP Lounge" inside the offices of the Hot Rod and Custom shop and they treat us pretty damn well too. Let us hang out and drink cold ones and smoke our cigars too! Every now and again some former Ball players stop by and it is very entertaining 'Bubbas Style!

Get a friggin life up there in Fairfax City and just let us be left alone down here in Beautiful Sunny Jupiter Florida

My recommendation is that you try an alternative style. Bubbas style was not much of a success. You were located in the center of 6 of the 10 wealthiest counties in the nation....lots of disposable income.....could not make it work. Oh that's right, it'd the negativity of the D.C. metropolitan area that is to blame.

Took my car in to Bubba's back in 2008 to have some work done. Was told three weeks, no problem! Three months later, I finally get fed up and go to pick up the car. They had done what I asked, but the work was amateur at best. Ended up going to three other shops to get my ride De-Bubbafied and never went back.
I know at least 5-10 other guys that have had their cars mangled in one way or another from that automotive butcher shop.
Tom was pleasant to deal with, but like has already been said, he's an excellent bullshitter. I thought Bubba was ok too, but definitely nowhere near the league they portrayed him to be in.

Every now and again the customer will have a negative experience but with our experience few and far in between. Maybe due to Bubs not being able to "touch" every vehicle in the que due to unbelievable demand for their services. Whatever the case we simply cannot please each and every customer.

Overall the projects are the best in the business when done properly Bubbas Style.

Why so sad? These guys are award winning Builders and they had a pretty good run here in Fairfax with a whole lot of ups and downs until they were overcome by too many mistakes and perhaps some border line illegal activities.

Remarkably they survived long enough to transplant their whole Hot Rod and Custom Operations down in Lucrative Jupiter Florida and are now busy like gang busters. Looks like they have ultimately found their niche in the Sunshine State and continue with their Reality TV Shows, radio shows and rubbing elbows with the VIP and celebrities down there in the VIP Lounge. Eating Popcorn, smoking cigars and Doin It Bubbas Style!

Keep on Keeping On Tom and Bub!

There is just ONE legal case ongoing here in Fairfax and the authorities have been unable to discover anything was done with the intention to defraud anyone. The paper trail at Bubbas held up very well to scrutiny and they plan to leave it at that so what ever happened here in Fairfax is behind us.

Their Restoration and Custom shop in Jupiter rolls along and business in the Sunshine State is very good so let it go at that!

Keep on keeping on Tom and Bub! No Harm No Foul!

Give it up Tom (or Bubba), nobody is listening up here in VA.

Happy to hear you must pay substantial financial restitution to several in the Old Car Hobby that you have looted and cheated over the years as a stipulation to be sentenced to just get probation and stay out of jail here in Fairfax.

Now get the hell out of here and stay put in Florida and I hope that a Gator or Crock does not swallow you up WHOLE and then spit you out there in Jupiter.

Lord knows it's a good idea for you clowns to expand up and down the east coast considering your "projects" usually can't make it more than a couple of hundred miles without break down. Talk about customer retention..."I made it all the way from Bubba's in Virginia all the way down to Bubba's in South Carolina! I'm calling Guinness, that's got to be a record!"

But........did you not realize the video you linked is from three years ago, Tom?

You have lost your mind. You've convinced yourself being arrested for screwing over the public never happened and that Bubba is the best car builder in the world.

How exactly is Bubba going to work in more than one place at a time?

Did you screw someone out of a 3D printer?

I did see Tom and Bubba on the Velocity Channel last season with Ted Vernon of South Beach Classics. They fully built a RestoMod TBird from the ground up that just stole the show! What a Beautiful car they built for NYY Baseball Icon and World Series MVP the Legendary Bucky Dent!

That you cannot refute or in someway give this awesome accomplishment by Father and Son team Tom and Bubba a negative spin. They are truly Giants in the company of Giants and Legends and are without a doubt one of the best father and son teams in the Auto Craftsmanship Industry.

They truly are Rock Stars in the Classic, Vintage, Custom, and Exotic car, Truck and Motorcycle Industry but now operating out of Sunny paradise Jupiter Florida in their State of the Art Facility, VIP lounge, and Production Studio!

All that being said, here in Fairfax the Haters are still gonna hate regardless of what they do!

BTW, what shape is ole Bucky's car in now?? I certainly haven't seen any pictures of him with it. I heard (from those close to "my friend" Ted ;) ) that the car was basically just a shell and nothing more than paint and an interior..... I.E. not in driving and cruising shape... so I can imagine it went straight back to your shop afterwards, and then I can imagine that there is sits waiting for the Midas touch of young Bubba

HAHAHA you should hear what Ted has to say about it.... has he called you for more work?? surprised since you did such a KILLER JOB on Bucky's car

Interesting although the word that came back to me up here in Fairfax from that particular TBird Build for South Beach Classics was that Ted is extremely afflicted with the Hard stuff and was anything but sober whenever the Velocity cameras were rolling during the show. From what I could tell, having to deal with his controlling wife is why he stays "In the grip of Liquor" so to say. Just a matter of time until he blows a gasket while on the air and his days are numbered with the Velocity Channel. You heard it here first!

He has established and built up several Vintage, exotic, and muscle car, truck, and bike repair and restoration businesses and obviously raised and mentored a very warm, talented and Industry acclaimed son, the Master Bubba who is one of the Top technicians in this field.

And one thing is certain that whatever criticism that seems to come their way is rightfully ignored and rolls right off their backs. These two guy are simply the Real Deal! Great at what they do and great friends!

The court should not force you to payback money you owe to someone. They should have done that on their own. It sounds like really poor customer service on their part from what you are saying. Are they still in business in Fairfax? Why can I not find a business website for Bubba's when I do a simple Google search? My dog sitter has their own website that is easy to find and they only do it as a limited part time business. When I search Troy Ladd, Boyd Coddington or Chip Foose I find a professional business website. When I search Bubba's East Coast I find a bunch of ramblings on Fairfax Underground from someone affiliated with the company, I hear nothing but talk about an award from 2009 that is for a show, and Tom Lloyd's mug shot from his felony arrest. They should focus on improving their fabrication and customer service skills vs. responding to a local blog in a City they used to business in. They seem to be worried about a lot of things instead of being focused on turning out rods. Whoever is trying to build their brand is failing.

Winning an award from the local Fairfax CoC of which you were an active member of is so small time but bragging about it is clown shoes. Hotrodders focus on having the meanest cars on the streets. Bubba's is all about bragging about awards that have nothing to do with building cars. Their claim to fame is a indie tv award that nobody has ever heard about except after googling it once it is bragged about. Start building cars that aren't something that any installer could do and you will get some respect in the industry.

Bottom line Bubba and Tom are still in a thriving Business down here in Lovely paradise Jupiter Florida. The facility is State of the Art! Visit their website as they are insanely busy working on many many sik projects vintage and super cars and exotics for a better class of clientele including several celebrities and sports legends. In addition, they have been actively involved with the Velocity Channel joining Ted Vernon's South Beach Classics. All of this should speak for itself!

Back down to lucrative West Palm Beach and their BEM (Bubbas's Exotic Motorsports) Enterprise ! The money flows freely down there when you specialize in Pricey Exotics that only the Master Bubba has the expertise to get the job done properly and on time!

These guys have more than nine lives and live on to garner the attention in the Specialty High Performance Sport Automotive Field as well as Reality TV that they were born for.

Honestly? Really Not much here that amounts to much more than silly pick pocket petty larceny which most likely resulted from misunderstandings with disgruntled customers having unrealistic lofty expectations for their rotting classics.

Tom and Master Bubba will always fondly look back on all this as a quirky Learning experience here in Fairfax back when they started on Gasoline Ally.

They are smarter, leaner, and more experienced with the Blue Bloods and top flight clientele they now run with down in the sunny, lucrative West Palm Beach Market!

Reality TV on the Velocity Channel is where we shall see them next!

Being a convicted thief would bar him from employment at most WalMarts, but it is likely a plus for the bottom feeders who produce reality TV shows.

The app "GetUpside" will give you cash back when you buy gas. In the app you claim the gas station, then you upload a photo of your receipt. No catch, no scam, I'm using it and got some friends and family on it.

Some stations do like 10 cents others do as high as 25 cents.. AND you can get an extra 20c on your first fill up when you sign up with code HGWM5

It also gives you credit to the gas station, which is further incentive. So if you get a tire rotation or buy something in the store, you will receive cash back from those purchases as well.

Spread the word, spread the code, and lets get more participating gas stations! This kind of thing will add up over time so be patient.

Download the app here.

Asked this before. What reputable auto shop is going to require that its customers prepay for work performed on their cars?

I can see requiring prepayment for expensive parts that are purchased from third parties. Otherwise the shop is holding the customers' cars and can always sell them to cover unpaid work. The only reasons would be that the costs of the work would greatly exceed the value of the car, or that the auto shop was using customers deposits to fund expenses unrelated to the customer's job. Either reason should be a warning sign to customers to go elsewhere.

Jupiter police arrest man accused of scamming owners of antique car


https://www.wpbf.com/article/jupiter-police-arrest-man-accused-of-scamming-owners-of-antique-car/25838491

JUPITER, Fla. —
Jupiter police have arrested a Palm Beach Gardens man after nearly a dozen classic car owners said they were ripped off.
Thomas Lloyd, 57, faces charges of fraud of $50,000 or more and money laundering transaction $100,000 or more.


According to the probable cause affidavit, Lloyd ran Bubba’s East Coast Rods and Customs.
Since 2017, at least 10 people have come forward and told police they gave Lloyd tens of thousands of dollars to do work on their cars, the report said.
The victims said the work was either never done as promised or it wasn’t done right.
Police said the total amount stolen from the victims is more than $281,000.
Lloyd now runs Bubba’s Exotic Motorsports in Lake Park.
He has bonded out of jail.
Lloyd did not want to talk on- or off- camera today about the allegations.
WPBF 25 spoke with Lloyd’s attorney, Brian Pakett, by phone.
He said Lloyd will be entering a plea of not guilty and his intentions with his customers were always good.
“For every customer that my client had that had somebody that was upset with his work and was upset with the lack of work that he did, I can show you two more customers that were extremely happy with my client and in fact are repeat customers," Pakett said.
Pakett said Lloyd always intended on working on people’s cars and did the work on the majority of them.

I think these two stooges have gone OUT OF BUSNESS IN FLORIDA. They moved to lake park FL. they lasted about 8 months there. I think the baseball player Mr. Morrison drove the final nail in the bubba box. Its a shame because these two guys had a good game plan but forgot HONESTY and actually doing the work is needed. the obsession with being on TV and FAMOUS got the best of both of them. I hope Bubba learns to lead not follow !!!!!!!!
