Vanlife: 1993 Pontiac Trans Port

From Jonathan Welsh: "This one might not hold a candle to those sharp '59 Pontiacs but is pretty stylish for the early '90s. A rare bird for your consideration.General Motors frittered away several years before responding to rival Chrysler's groundbreaking minivans that arrived in the 1984 model year. When the Pontiac Trans Sport and sibling Chevrolet Lumina APV rolled out for 1990, Chrysler was nearly ready with its second-generation model. The pointy-nose GM vans turned heads but their styling proved polarizing. The "Dustbuster" nickname came quickly and stuck. They really did look like the cordless Black & Decker Dustbuster handheld vacuums of the period. Gold trim and wheels tell me this is a '93."

AL: Seems to me in Robert Altman's 1992 black comedy about Hollywood, The Player, Range Rovers were THE car everyone in the biz had to have until, somewhere near the end of the film, Oldsmobile minivans of the Dustbuster era suddenly became THE car.
