(click for pic)
Comments: At 1:28, they come into Los Angeles and get stuck in rush hour traffic. Just after Raul Julia says of the Ferrari "the engine is getting too hot", a white 1200 coupe goes by. There is also a green coupe on the onramp. At 1:29 the fake cops run around the bright green 1200 coupe, you can make out the side emblems and GL style hubcaps. Bonus: several good shots of B210s, TE22 Celica and other vintage japanese steel, let alone a gizillion lead sleds.
Funny Lady movie info on IMDB
Comments: There's at least one 1200 in Funny Lady, a kelly green Coupe.
Gone in 60 Seconds (1974) movie info on IMDB
Comments: Here are the Datsun sightings: At 38 minutes* for about one minute as Lyle Wagoneer's Ferrari gets stolen there is a like-new green 1200 coupe right behind the actors. A good view of the rear, but a bit of the side is also visible. You can see the what the original "bright" green looked like (this is not the dark green). At 120 minutes (scene lasts about 4 minutes) the main character drives past the (12 story?) Nissan North America headquarters building before turning into the Torrance Mazda agency, through Butler Buick and into the Moran Cadillac dealership. There is a clear shot of the rear of a white 1200 coupe. There may be Datsun 1200 2-dr sedans and coupes visible along the street and maybe in the car lots, it's hard to say. And though literally hundreds of other cars are damaged, as far as I can tell no Datsuns were harmed during the movie.
Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978) movie info on IMDB
Comments: there's reportedly a mint orange 1200 Coupe in one of the scenes. I was able to get a glimpse of a red coupe (as they were driving to the psychiatrist) at about 0:25
