To make the film, H. B. Halicki used his own personal collection of over 200 cars, toys, and guns—including Eleanor, the star of his 1974 cult classic Gone in 60 Seconds.

Harlan B. Hollis struggles to stay alive when a jealous public relations manager hires a team of assassins to kill him.

The film starts with the head hitman Frank Spyros answering a pay phone and getting instructions from a then unknown person to go ahead with a hit on Hollis as he drives to the James Dean Festival in Cholame, California.

Clark's crew find the bomb in the limo, throw it into a parking lot, and it explodes, blowing up several cars in the process.

Hoyt Axton makes a special appearance as "Captain Gibbs"; his character would play a much larger role in Halicki's next film, Deadline Auto Theft (1983).
