Solved: Rust never sleeps - 2017 edition

[luisps]

Sorry I've mistaked the number.
- Rust 9, is the connection to Place B due to something in the picture?
- Is Rust 2 Italian?

[Wendax]

Twice no

[luisps]

- Is Rust 2 Italian?
- Place A Is the connection with its Rust the word Yorkshire?

[Wendax]

Rust 2 is still not Italian, but Yorkshire is the keyword to Place A.

[luisps]

Sorry again for the repetitive  question
- Is rust 2 German?
- Is Yorkshire the county were its couple rust as made?

[Wendax]

1) Yes
2) I don't know where the company was located.

[ropat53]

Rust 2 - Mercedes Benz Ponton, Portuguese Army driving school and Place C - Anniversary of the 1974 Revolution Monument in Lisbon.

Rust 2 - Mercedes Benz Ponton, Portuguese Army driving school and Place C - Anniversary of the 1974 Revolution Monument in Lisbon.

Correct! I'll add some pictures of this rather unknown Mercedes-Benz tonight.

Thanks Ropat53 for unclogging the completion of this "devilish" puzzle. There are only two couples left to join. I tell you what I have already need to deduce
Rust 11 is a French Talbot bodied in the UK and ist partner is Place B which is a photo of the Washington Capitol under construction. But I could not find the relationship between them
Rust 15 is a supposedly obscure English vehicle, similar but not made by SCAMP. Logically it can only be related to Place A which is a photo of Bradford, Yorkshire. The word that relates them is Yorkshire, what remains to be found is the brand of Rust 15.
Two easy extra points for Ropat53 or any other pro that wants to help to finish the puzzle.
Anyway I had a great fun solving the first 12 couples, thanks Wendax

[Wendax]

A slight correction: I don't know where Rust 11 was bodied, probably French, not UK.

[Wendax]

The Portuguese army Mercedes-Benz:

A slight correction: I don't know where Rust 11 was bodied, probably French, not UK.

Rust 11 has already been solved, it's the Winchester London Taxi, Rust 9, the Talbot is still unsolved.

[Wendax]

Of course!

[ropat53]

Is Rust 15 Mini based?

[Wendax]

According to the scarce info I have there are some Mini parts in it, as well as some of related cars.

[ropat53]

3) As far as I know it is not a Scamp, but very closely related.

Rust 15 is not a SCAMP, but was Robert Mandry involved?

[Wendax]

I don't know. The car might be a more or less modified Scamp, but it has a manufacturer of its own.

[luisps]

Returning to Rust 9 Talbot and his couple Place B Washington Capitol, is the word America what relates them?

[Wendax]

No

[ropat53]

I think the connection is DC. Rust 9 Talbot Type DC and Place B Washington DC.

[Wendax]

That's it! One more to go.

[ropat53]

How about Rust 15 - NOMAD MINI, built by Foers Engineering/Yorkshire and Place A - Alhambra Theater Bradford, Yorkshire.

[Wendax]

Not a Nomad

Normally when something obscure and automotive cross-refers to the Bradford area it involves Idle. Or the Idle Working Mens' Club
