Synopsis by Sandra Brennan

The desperate ploys of unsuccessful salespeople provide the basis of this comedy that centers on "Iowa City" Bob as he tries to sell just one vehicle from his Church of the Used Car lot. The ever-optimistic Bob is sincere and caters absolutely to the opinions of the customers, but still, no one will buy his autos. Also involved in the story are two loud evangelists, Guitar Monte and Snakegirl, who sell salvation. They come to Bob's lot and a find a '78 Pontiac, which they desperately want to own. Unfortunately, they haven't a dime between them, so Bob makes an arrangement with them. They begin working together, and along the way, Bob finds salvation and is compelled to "Sell the Truth."
