X2. That cladding is so 1990s. He should have done something like this so I didn't look so outdated.

Re: Bubba's hacked up ****ery on some poor guys Typhoon
Im waiting for him to get as much chrome plated junk as possible..valve covers, grille, door handles..or maybe he is current and up to date and using billet..billet door handles, billet gauge overlays...or maybe even more modern than that and using carbon fiber sh!t! Oh wait nevermind he carbed an EFI motor....he better stick to summits race catalog for chrome plated stuff.
He and his pops are basically a wanna be West Coast Chopper gig...like Paul Jr and Sr doing hot rods...but with the customers on a budget..just waiting to get discovered
how many food stamps for a bitchin tune up Bubba!?:2cents:

Re: Bubba's hacked up ****ery on some poor guys Typhoon
lots are painted like that- mine was before-(talked into it by a shop that didn't want to put 100 hours into it.
and me putting $8000 into it)
not defending this asshole just putting budget owners on notice-granted there are some nice ones
Most body guys will not want to drill out, take the time to prep and fix the cladding right before installing or have previous experience(which is most)

Re: Bubba's hacked up ****ery on some poor guys Typhoon
Posted this morning on Facebook. Apparently we are all just to ignorant to fully understand Bubba's level of genius.
Bubbas East Coast Rods & Customs Mark, she is running. There was so much electrical damage to her because of the previous owners work that Bubba is going to finish a couple of other items. Everyone has attacked Bubba, unjustifiably so, for setting the truck up the way it is but they obviously failed to read the story in it's entirety. The owner was on an very limited budget with her because so much had been invested previously and was ready to dump the truck. Bubba stepped in and fixed the problem and now she runs fantastic but to the anointed few who think they know everything, it was the wrong thing and the easy thing to do and dragged Bubba through the mud. Totally uncool to have done and I won't tolerate that kind of negativity here! Turbocharged applications with carburetors have been around a LONG time and fortunately Bubba possesses enough knowledge to know how to set up a motor correctly and do so without EFI. Sadly, those who only understand EFI and do not possess the same knowledge as Bubba are the very same ones acting so childish and cruel and should be ashamed of their critical behavior. When the electrical meltdown happened on the Typhoon it also took out the electrical to the factory installed gauges so the previous owner moved them to the A pillar. Bubba has corrected the electrical issues there as well and in the process of removing the gauges from the A pillar so the OEM gauges function as they should. Bubba wanted the Typhoon to stay as close to stock as it could remain as he is well aware of the rareness and value of theses special little trucks. There may well come a time when we move her all back over to the EFI set up once the owner enjoys her for a bit and has the confidence that she is worth investing more in but for right now he just wants to drive her. I am going to post up video of her running and will also update this posting with pix of the factory gauges working once again. Thank you Mark for showing an interest in seeing her run. I promise I will get you some video up.

Yeah every pillar pod gauge is installed because of electrical issues :roll: I have no doubt it ran like crap. Assuming no major mechanical failure, I know that I could have fixed that typhoon with minimal part cost besides labor.

That's the worst part. Any knowledgeable sytyer would have been able to fix this Typhoon for less than the cost of the carb and intake. Now it would really take some money and plenty of parts to fix properly. This is just a pro-hack job for sure. Even if the work was free! The owner still got ripped off. :tdown:

Patiently waiting for the video of the stock gauges working. Isn't that what we're all concerned about? Just when I think Bubba's douchebaggery can't get to a higher level, they post that shit! Hey, maybe they can leave the A pillar pod and run a douchebaggery gauge. Now that's something all his hack jobs need!
