I found Bubba
I was driving thru downtown Cincinnati into Northern KY when I got behind the raggy ford pu with the camper top bungy corded and duct taped on, it had a bumper sticker that said "Bubba on Board" 
and it had KY license plates.
and it had KY license plates.

Yep, that's him! He travels from town to town getting by doing mechanical work. He stopped by my house one day when I had the garage door open and he saw me working on the Vette. He said he could "save me some time" and "I can show you a shortcut for that". I told him I didn't need his help, but he kept insisting he was "very familiar" with Corvettes.
As he drove away, I got up off the creeper only to find that the cigarette he had just put out had started to set a small pile of dry leaves on fire right next to the garage. I quickly stomped it out...whew!

Easy now!. Not everyone in KY is a Bubba. Some of us even wear shoes and have MOST of our teeth. I'm not even related to my wife by blood.

I've even found evidence of Bubba's work in motor homes. I was helping a friend work out why the radio wasn't working in his 1990 Bravo 21 footer. Wow is all I can say. Now I know what Bubba did after "learning" electrical wiring on my 76. At least with my Vette, I could order a new dash harness and eliminate all of his "improvements" in one step. That poor dash harness on the motor home, though...

It's nice to know he's been located, but it would have been even nicer to know that you had forced him to the side of the road, pulled him out of the truck in kicked him in the pills for what he did to my car.

Bubba's quest for world domination isn't as far from succeeding as we all like to think.
We must maintain our vigilance.

Pulled the exhaust off my 75 parts car yesterday, the prescence of Bubba was strong. I never noticed before but now with carpet outand daylight streaming from above, I could see that the floor had been smashed into several pieces. It was glassed back together without even trying to fit the pieces near each other, they were a good 1/2" apart.
