So a guy writes a post about the TLC show Overhaulin’ on his weblog and leaves comments open for the post. For some reason, that weblog post appears as the first result when people google the word “Overhaulin.”
Enter the rednecks. Apparently there are a lot of people out there that can’t distinguish between a show’s official site and a weblog post. Chaos ensues:
hello. we watch you show all the time. i would like to see is i could get you to do my son truck.
…
i need a over haul on a 1985 ford bronco it’s rusted out it would be a good project truck
…
How does one apply to have husband’s old car be a canidate for makeover. He has a 66 VW bug and never has the money or time to fix it up.

LOVE THE SHOW!!!1977 Buick Century, 2-tone (brown and cream), all original components, but crappy speaker job. No rust, nice paint, nice interior, runs well. If interested in overhaulin’ it, I’m in Florida…please get back to me.
And, of course, there’s all-caps guy:
MY WIFE HAS A 65 MUSTANG THAT NEEDS A LOT OF WORK. WE TRY TO FIND THE TIME AND MONEY BUT OTHER THINGS ALWAYS COME UP…
It goes on and on… in the words of the only sane poster, “These people really have to forget about the cars for a bit and work on their reading comprehension skills.”
