It was Heaven in ’57. High school outcast Rodney C. Duckworth (Gary Springer), dubbed “The Rodent,” borrows a brand‑new Chevy convertible to chase the girl of his dreams. With greaser Calhoun (David Wilson), hot‑rodder T.J. Swackhammer (Brian Kerwin) and willing women at his side, Rod rockets from zero to hero in a wild ride of near‑misses, direct hits and bra‑busting fun.
