He creates a fabulous new vehicular contraption with an old lounge chair! One by one Gus's friends bring him their vehicles and Gus solves their troubles with ingenious solutions - a cooling system made with a fridge that doubles as an ice-cream machine, a burst of speed from a rocket blaster. Soon the workshop is almost empty, but the last scraps might be just enough to solve Gus's own problem at the end of a long day
