Topic: Solved: Rust never sleeps - 2017 edition

[Wendax]

Yes

[luisps]

Them if Rust 8 is the cupé DKW AutoUnion 1000 designed by Fissore this should be the couple of Place L where some of such car model were built

[Wendax]

Yes, the Fissore Coupé was built at Sauce Viejo near Santa Fe. One more oint for you.

[luisps]

Thank you Wendax. I may have a solution for the Krause of  Rust 10.  Can I assume that it is not blocked for kwgibbs that mentioned that brand the past 18th?

[Wendax]

No locks around here. When I lock, I will definitely say so. You won't earn a lock here by just identifying either a car or a place.

[luisps]

Ok, clear. Rust 10 is the Krause Microcar. Krause moved their facilities in 1970 from Leipzig to the swiss twon of Brandis. Place O is a picture of the Castel of Brandis.

Oh dear, I didn't realize that Place O showed the Brandis castle in Switzerland. Krause moved from Leipzig to the Saxonian town of Brandis where there is a castle of the same name.  I guess, in 1970 many Saxonian people would have been glad if they were allowed to move to Switzerland... Anyway, you got the right solution again.

Thank you Wendax, with this point today I would have reached 300 points, it would not be bad, but since I have to wait until the 15 couples are solved, I think it will be years before I receive the prize. I need other autopuzzlers to help me !!!

[Wendax]

I'm sure there will be some pro puzzlers joining as soon as it was moved up. 

[luisps]

I've been lucky this afternoon afther several hours of hard work, I think I've found three new couples:
Rust 3, as a micro-enthusiast, was sure to find it in my archives. It's a Cicostar made by CICO in France, which is in partnership with Place N, In the drawing appears the name Ferri G. that corresponds to the Italian sketcher Gallieno Ferri whose most famous comic is Zagor, that appears behind the cabin, which had a friendly friend named CICO that is the sheriff of front, from there I deduce that Rust 3 and Place N are couple
Rust 4 is the car MURAD a one-off English car recently found in a barn find and auctioned months ago. Looking for the meaning of Murad I found that it is a common name for several Ottoman sultans and starting with Murad I have found Place F the tomb of Sultan Murad on Kosovo field.
Rust 11 of this vehicle I think I am sure that it is the picture of the inside of an English Jowett Javelin whose company was located in Bradford, searching the internet for images of the city I have seen that the tower on the back of the photo of Place A is the Bradford National Media Museum Located in the old theater Alhambra

[Wendax]

I can see that you are enjoying the game. 
Regarding your guesses:
Rust 3 is a Cicostar, Place N is taken from a Cico comic. Just add the Cicostar model and the town where Cico is sheriff, and the point is yours. (This combination locked for you of course).
Rust 4 is the Murad, Place F is Meşhed-i Hüdavendigar, the tomb of Sultan Murad I at the kosovo battlefields. One point for you.
Rust 11 is not a Jowett Javelin, but at least Place A is correctly identified as the Alhambra theatre in Bradford.

[luisps]

To comlete Rust 3 the Cicostar model Matic and for the place N  the sheriff CICO (nickname of  Don Cico Felipe Cayetano Lopez y Martinez y Gonzales, mexican inmigrant in Texas) was the Sheriff of Texas City, if the Internet does not fool me...

[Wendax]

Perfect! 

[luisps]

I need a clarification, as this is a multiple puzzle, I consider that I can ask several questions at a time as long as they do not refer to the same photo. I will ask several questions in a row, in case my assumption is not acceptable, answer only the first one and I will make separate entries for successive ones.
1.- Was the Rust 5 DKW van manufactured in Europe?
2.- Rust 14 and its corresponding Place are from the same country?
3.- The Rust corresponding to Place A (Bradford) was built in Yorkshire?

1. Yes
2. Yes
3. No

[luisps]

Rust 14 is the electric Peugeot VLV made during the WWII times. Place K should be the aspect that the development center that the PSA group in La Garenne-Colombes would have in the 40's. Therefore, Rust 14 and Place K are coupled

Correct again, the VLV was not built in Sochaux, but at the Peugeot factory in La Garenne-Colombes.

[luisps]

One more point in mic savings account. Consequently three more questions:
1.- Was the DKW van from Rust 5 built in Germany?
2.- The Rust corresponding to Place A is an English car?
3.- It’s Place B in Europe?

[Wendax]

1) No 2) Yes 3) No

[luisps]

1.- Was the DKW van from Rust 5 built in a country south of Germany?
2.- The Rust corresponding to Place A is an English taxi car?
3.- It’s Place B in U.S.?

[el_monty]

luisps, Place B is the Capitol dome being built in Washington DC, in the mid-19th Century. Just giving you a hand as otherwise I have no idea how any of these images are linked and I'm very impressed with what you've done so far!

... el_monty is right.

[luisps]

Thank you Wendax and el_monty for your opinion. After your last answers I feel that may solve the DKW f89 Schnellasters part of the puzzle: From all the different places were it was made we've eliminated Argentinia, Spain, Yugoslavia and Gernany (including IFA) the only other european that had built them that is available in Internet is described as follow: "The Finnish heavy vehicle producer Suomen Autoteollisuus assembled a series of ten Schnellasters in Karis, Finland at the turn of November 1956. The vehicle was branded Donau-Sisu. The bodies were welded in Finland by use of fixtures delivered from West Germany. Welding of the complete body took just two hours per unit. Plans were in place for a larger scale production but it was not started because the technically archaic vehicle did not meet the needs of the potential Finnish customers.[2] One repairable Donau-Sisu has survived and saved by vintage vehicle enthusiasts at the end of 2011". I feel that the photo of Rust 5 reffers to the last mentioned survival vehicle. To find the corresponding Place I take the name Donau-Sisu. Sisu is the largest truck producer in Finland, Place E is an aerial photo of a large industry but It looks a quemical or minning operation, no large parking with rows of trucks. So I investigate Donau that is the german name of the Danube river, the only other river photo is Place G that shows a sinking of a bridge, looking for an accident of this type I find a Spanish newpaper of 1976 that mention the sinking of a bridge on the Danube, going deeper I've found that the bridge Reichsbruecke of Wien collapsetd in 1976 with the attached picture that matches Place G from other point of view. So my guess is that Rust 5 and Place G is the couple that I was looking for.

[Wendax]

Well done, all correct, but not complete. As I said in my initial post, one car is related to two places. Now you have found the Donau bit, search for the SISU place (and it's not Place E). This combination locked for you, of course.

[luisps]

Thank you again for your quick answer. I hope that I've the solution to that "Trio" (without sexual connotations) Apart from the meaning of Sisu in Finnish that can not be applied to any of the remaining "Place", I have immediately found that SISU is the acronym for Shangai International Studies University. Looking for the building of it appears exactly "Place M". So the complete triangle is Rust 5 - Place G - Place M.
Let me explain you why I was so interested in solving Rust 5. When I was 20 years old in the 1960s I rebuilt a f9  Chassis-cabin with wooden loading platform manufactured by IMOSA in Vitoria in 1955 that my father bought in a dilapidated state, completely dismantling it, taking out the cabin to rebuild all the lows and eliminating the loading zone of wood and mounting a metallic box truck of high volume to transport furniture. In the end everything worked and we used it until the decade of the '70s. The problem was that the weight of the new body lowered the load capacity from 1000 kg to no more than 500 kg and the speed did not exceed 60 km / h which was not a problem to move in the already congested traffic of Barcelona.
Now to folow the game I like to place some other questions, mainly becose the amount of right hand rust pending to solve:
1.- Do Place D is from UK?
2.- Do Place E is from UK?
3.- Do Place H is from UK?
4.- Do Place A and Rust 1 are related?
5.- Do the truck of Place 13 is from UK?
That's enough for some extra fun time
