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!
