  In one episode of 'Walker, Texas Ranger', the "damsel in distress" has an ebody. Walker commandeers her car which happens to be a Gran Coupe and uses it to escape the bad guys who i believe were shooting  :22yikes: (blanks hopefully) at them.
  In the '87-'90 TV series 'Wiseguy', the title character played by Ken Wahl would, at times, tend to a what looked to be a '70 Challenger R/T 440-6 car.
  There's also an Alan Alda movie from the mid 70's called 'The Mephisto' Waltz co-starring Jacqueline Bisset. Alan Alda's character drives a 'cuda convertible.

Both versions of Gone In Sixty Seconds have E bodies in them.
Play the trailers and look at the Mustang jumping. You'll see a wrecked Challenger in it.

The jock in The Crush had a purple '70 Chally vert.  As mentioned, Fastlane had a few E-bod's.  I recall a lime Chally.

The TV show Viper had a mechanic who started with a purple '72 Chally, until the last season when he changed to a puple '71 Cuda..and of course, it had a Viper.

Gone Fishin with Joe Pesci had a 1st Gen Barracuda

I'll mention it again. Highwaymen had a 68 Barracuda that was suppose to be a Hemi but, in the scene at the end where he crashes into the black 4dr Cadillac you can see its a big block engine.

Not sure if this was said, but when I was visiting a friend a couple years ago, I caught a little of a show on cable called

"The Sentinel"

 that had the badguys being chased as they drove a black '72 Challenger Rallye around town then I think into a building.  Decent chase but not real long.
1972 Dodge Challenger Rallye 340, AT, Code TB3=Super Blue, SBD=8/17/1971.  Yes, a Rallye without the fender louvers from the factory because of the body side molding option.

I'm not sure if I saw this one or not but CHIPS had to have a few Mopars in there. I mean with all the cars on that show there must have been some.

Gone Fishin with Joe Pesci had a 1st Gen Barracuda

2nd gen.  A 68 fastback, to be exact.  I bought the movie, just for the car.

John Whayne in the movie "Mc Q" had a few Mopars in it. I loved his Brewster green 73 Pontiac 455 Trans am. There were 2 used in the film one was distroyed, Pontiac built only 146 in that color.
