Trivia
There was also a TV pilot produced that showed up on TV just once. For a show with such an outlandish premise, it was very well done, with sharp writing. There is virtually no trace of the pilot anywhere on the web.

Am I the only one?

I seem to be the only person on Planet Earth who remembers this movie and the pilot that resulted from it. I remember being impressed by the writing, despite the outlandish premise. I also remember that it had my childhood favorite Eve Arden in it, and that was enough to carry the day for me. I had first met Eve in the late 60s NBC TV show The Mothers-in-Law, co-starring Kaye Ballard, a show that ended prematurely when its producer Desi Arnaz refused to come to terms with Roger C. Carmel, who left the show causing ratings to decline. His replacement in season 2 was Richard Deacon, who was great in his element, but this was not his element.

As to Nuts and Bolts, it seems to have vanished without a trace.
