If this has a holley intake then he probably changed the cam. If this car has a lumpy idle then you are driving to slow in the gear where you get the bucking and jumping. Your only thing to change this is sell teh car if you don't care for it. Get the cam changed to something not so power set up, or live with it. The car has been obviuosly hopped up from your discription.
