Leroy Edwards pays $800 for a late-model wrecked vehicle from Charley Giddings' salvage yard, but only takes the VIN plate so that it can be transferred to a stolen vehicle of the same make. Giddings is part of the scheme, but his assistant Jimmy Higgins innocently calls the Highway Patrol after the car is not claimed for several days, leading to Edwards' arrest. Out on bail, Edwards offers to leave the country after killing Jimmy if Virgil (the theft ring's leader) will pay him $30,000. Virgil agrees, but sabotages the vehicle in which Edwards and Jimmy are riding. Edwards is killed in the ensuing accident, but Jimmy manages to provide Dan Mathews and Officer Ellsworth with information that eventually leads them to Charley Giddings and Virgil.
