Now I am confused. Street C depicts the former Staunau factory. But though I have identified most of your group puzzles, I can't find one which featured a Staunau - save Paradise by the dashboard light, but it has already been taken.

In the following you will find thirteen street pictures and thirteen other pictures where names are missing. You will find out very quickly what those "no name" pictures are. All you have to do is to find the connections between the streets and the "no names". To prove that you are right, you have to put the right name to the "no name", name the street which includes the city it can be found in, and tell how they are connected. To make it a little harder, one pair is not connected which will make it a little harder. You can get two points for identifying that street.

You found the odd one out. Staunau wasn't part of any of my group puzzles. It just served as a wrong guess at Paradise by the Dashboard Light. To get two points, just name the street and add the right album cover (which is the one connected to this group puzzle). Street C locked for you.

The street is Hörstener str 47.

Do you mean Cover art no9, which is the rear cover for Meat Loaf's Bat out of Hell featuring Paradise by the dashboard light?

Cover 13 is Going underground by The Jam, collerates to Going underground group puzzle.
The reason I found it is that I looked for occurences of Hamburg-Altona on autopuzzles. And I found this:

And the reason I looked for Hamburg-Altona is that I found out that pic L is at the same location (you should have osbscured Auto-Klein

)

The street is correct. For the completeness please add the town (I know you know it). Regarding the record cover just look for the one which connects to "Where the streets have no name".

No5: U2, where the streets have no name
And the city is Hamburg-Harburg

Another correct one. I thought about obscuring the "Auto-Klein" lettering, but I decided there should be an easier one in here, too. I also found it quite amazing that the company still exists at the same address as it was some 90 years ago.

Yes, two points earned.

Nice to see that somebody else is tackling this one - I was beginning to feel a bit lonely.

Another group puzzle from 2011 was No Name 11 Ice Ice Baby (Vanilla Ice), where I sneaked in a point at the last minute thanks to Vicke the Viking.

One of the solutions linked an ice cream van of Glaces Ruiz, apparently a common sight in Cambrai in northern France, with a Blériot voiturette (Louis Blériot was born in Cambrai).

For this puzzle the link is with Street H, which is Place Aristide Briand in Cambrai. This is where the Glaces Ruiz van is usually seen, but I can't find it on Google Street View, but as the images were taken in February, maybe that's not surprising.

Thanks Tom_I - that was the only group puzzled I couldn't find. Now if I could match the remaining ones with the streets...

pnegyesi · « **Reply #35 on:** February 17, 2013, 07:32:10 AM »

No2 is Amii Stewart: Knock on wood.
And I am sure the connection is the Menck&Hambrock GmbH in Altona-Hamburg. Am I on the right path?

No Name 2 certainly is Amii Stewart of Knock on wood fame, but Menck & Hambrock is leading you on the wooden way as we say in German (auf dem Holzweg sein = barking up the wrong tree). No Hamburg connection this time.

Still sticking to No2, the song is there, group puzzle is Knock on wood which featured Papworth Industries - check Street E, Papworth Everard, papworth hall, United Kingdom.

That was one of the trickier ones. You are correct with the place, but Papworth Everard is the name of the village. The point is yours if you can name the street in the picture. Locked for you.

Papworth Hall, Ermine St S, Papworth Everard, Cambridge CB23 3RD, UK

Yes. The actual building where the Austin 16 woodies were built doesn't exist anymore. It was torn down for a housing area, but these workshops at the Papworth premises surely give an impression about it.

No Name 9 is Two Out of Three Ain't Bad (Meat Loaf, 1977). The group puzzle of the same name involved identifying the road wheels from 30 different cars, so it has been a long job to find the right one...

But one was from a Steinwinter Amigo. Steinwinter GmbH is based at Hagbergstraße 5 in Stuttgart, and that is shown in Street A.

No Name 3 is Bro Gozh ma Zadoù ("Old Land of My Fathers"), the Breton national anthem, and a group puzzle from summer 2012.

One of the vehicles featured in the puzzle was a Saviem refrigerated truck with bodywork by Carrosserie Victor Tual of Trédion, Brittany.

I confess that I haven't been able to find a definite address for this coachbuilder, but I have found Street G on Google Street View, and it is in Rue de l'Abbé Coedelo in Trédion, so hopefully that is the right connection.

Wendax · « **Reply #45 on:** February 19, 2013, 03:47:54 PM »

Well done, Sherlock!
I haven't had an exact for Carrosserie Tual either, but that pictured building was the only one in the whole village large enough to house a truck coachbuilder.

A very well- and hard-earned point for you again.

They seem to be getting harder, but here's today's attempt.

No Name 1 is Das Blech (1982) by the German band Spliff, who I have to admit I had never heard of. Das Blech (the panel) was also a group puzzle in 2011.

The only panel I managed to identify was from a Hansa 1100 Geschäftswagen. I'm not too sure about this, as I find the history of the Borgward Group a bit confusing, but I think this would have been made at the Goliath factory in Bremen.

If that's right, it would match with Street J, the Goliath-Haus at Hastedter Osterdeich 222 in Bremen-Hastedt.

All correct again. In 1958, Borgward changed the name of the Goliath cars to Hansa. Just the vans remained as Goliaths.
