TV show "The Streets of San Francisco": Green late Squareback parked across the street. "School of Fear" S4E5, 1975.
Green late '60's Type 3 in parking lot; can't tell the body style due to the back half not being in the shot. Appears in several episodes because it's a "stock shot" of the police department lot. "Birds of Prey" S3E11, 1975.
Red early Squareback, with Lt. Stone running past it. The camera is staying with Stone ("panning") so that the VW is blurry. "Most feared in the jungle". S2E14 1973.
