Just after the notorious Duke Jarvis gang robs his bank of $300,000, bank manager Floyd Sorelson calls the police and insurance offical George Detrich. A frightened teller is able to describe Jarvis as a blonde man with highly polished nails, and the police begin setting up roadblocks to nab him. Meanwhile, Jarvis and his men go to a garage run by Spike Edwards, who hides the loot in the running board of their getaway car. Jarvis and his men drive away, but when the police stop them at a roadblock, Jarvis panics and races off. He loses control of the car, which careens off a cliff. All of the men are killed, but the stolen money is not found. Two weeks later, Detrich is consulting with Sorelson, who is demanding the money's return, when they are interrupted by Tom Dwyer, a cocky private detective who offers to recover the money for a ten-percent finder's fee. Although Detrich does not like Tom, Sorelson hires him. Tom then goes to Ocean City, where carnival sideshow operator Ferrara has installed the "Jarvis death car" in his show of horrors, having purchased the vehicle in a public auction. At the carnival, Tom runs into Bonnie, an old girl friend, and is going through a roller coaster tunnel with her when Edwards' corpse is dropped in their car. (official distributor synopsis)
