Looking for info on a 70's scifi show

[gawin]

I remember a series about a guy who built a space ship out of junk and went to the moon to get the stuff left behind by NASA. I think it came out in the late 70's.<br /><br />any one remember this and what the name of the series was??<br /><br />thanks <br /><br />Gawin

It was a funnier show than "My Mother the Car." <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

Yes! "Salvage", starring Andy Griffiths. I remember it well and fondly, even though I've only seen it the once. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p> </p><p>One Percent of Federal Funding For Space: America <strong><em><u>CAN</u></em></strong> Afford it!!  LEO is a <strong><em>Prison</em></strong> -- It's time for a <em><strong>JAILBREAK</strong></em>!!</p> </div>

The capsule was 10 tons worth of iron cement mixer.<br /><br />Need a hellish booster just to fling that thing over Lake Michigan, let alone clear to the moon.<br /><br /><br /><br /><img src="/images/icons/frown.gif" /><br /><br /><br /><br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#ff0000"><strong>TPTB went to Dallas and all I got was Plucked !!</strong></font></p><p><font color="#339966"><strong>So many people, so few recipes !!</strong></font></p><p><font color="#0000ff"><strong>Let's clean up this stinkhole !!</strong></font> </p> </div>

I thought he was just trying to recover space debris from earth orbit. I do remember seeing it again a few years ago on TBS or TNT. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <em><font size="2">Bob DeWoody</font></em> </div>
