Tilley and Bill "BB" Bobowski are "tin men" - aluminium siding salesmen in Baltimore in 1963. Working for different companies, they are prepared to do almost anything - legal or illegal - to close a sale. Then BB buys a shiny new car to maintain his image of success...and almost immediately crashes into the older car driven by Tilley. This generates a spate of road rage and the two rivals vow to do anything to get back at the other. BB eventually seduces Tilley's wife - but Tilley is glad to see the back of her.
