As usual the answer to this question depends on exactly what type of salvaging you are planning on doing. Are you going to be salvaging wrecks that belong to you or those that belong to another player?
If salvaging your own wrecks then yes, a destroyer or the Hurricane is a good set-up. If salvaging wrecks belonging to others, your best bet is a cheap T1 frigate fitted for speed since you cannot tractor the wrecks.

you can do exactly the same as the hurricane with a harbinger if you have amarr skills.

If you have Salvager IIs, the salvage tackles can be swapped with more cargo rigs, I imagine.

You mean kinda like, if you have T2 rails, you can drop a magstab for a tank mod? 
(Not something I'd do)

Most level 1 and2 missions you can just equip a salvager on your mission ship and fly to the wrecks if you want to even take time with it. Destroyers work fine for up to level 3 missions. Battlecruisers (hurricane) for level 4's. A Marauder for champ if you can afford one just to salvage with. (So I hear, I use a hurricane)
One thing that speeds me up over most salvage fits I see is using 5 tractors and 3 salvagers rather then the usual 4/4 setup.
Try both and see which works better for you, I find that with 4/4 my salvagers are idle a lot waiting for stuff to get in range, where with 5/3 I balance the incoming wrecks with the salvage time alot better. Another nice feature of 5/3 is that if I manage to overload my cargo it does not hurt as bad to assign a tractor to drag a jetcan along with me to dump the loot into.

But both the Kronos and Paladin are better at that, too.
