Hoping to bring themselves up to at least the poverty level, two young ex-convicts, T Bone (who is black) and Weasel (who is white) have stolen a rather decrepit Buick and have set off across South Carolina with minor mayhem in mind

Moving swiftly from one adventure to another (with all the people whom they encounter played by the same actor) they botch an attempted robbery, because the drawer of the cash register is stuck

They are swindled out of the Buick by a fast-talking used car dealer; run afoul of a sexually voracious lady farmer (who is "ugly enough to turn a train down a dirt road");and fall into the clutches of a larcenous country preacher

and try to make off with the automobile of a politically ambitious small town doctor who wants to exhibit them as examples of what poverty can do to people. Eventually Weasel is hired on by a construction company - and actually buys a car

But when they refuse to take on T Bone as well, because of his color, it is back on the road again, pausing only to make out their last wills and testaments disposing of all their "worldly goods" which, for T Bone is nothing at all, and, for Weasel, consists primarily of his used Chevette; with thirty-two payments still to go!
