Towards the end of Blazing Saddles when the cast runs out of the sets and into the streets if you watch the traffic an orange Fastback drives by. I think it's a 1971. It's the reason I watch the movie. lol. My first car was just like it.

About an hour or so into the Showtime documentary, "History of the Eagles," after the scene where they describe how Bernie Leadon left to go surfing, they show a short movie clip. I doubt it was him, but who knows?

Daughter was watching Thelma and Louise. While chatting with her, I noticed John Madsens character park his car in a drive port next to a type3. Couldn't tell if it was a fasty or a square but the 70s shark-nose was stuck out. Not sure how far in I saw this.
