His gang of hot-rodding thugs, including Torch, Flip and Snoop, specialize in stripping cars in record time.The rampaging teens make quick work of any vehicles unfortunate enough to stop on their stretch of the highway. Using a chicken transport truck as a cover, they make off with their stolen loot undetected. Moose (Bruno VeSota), a crooked junk yard owner, provides ready cash for their illicit goods. A tenacious insurance investigator teams up with the police, determined to put an end to the crime-spree. As the noose tightens on the out-of-control teens, bullets fly with tragic results.
