History
Cars
Rusty and Dusty with McQueen.
Cars 3
Rusty and Dusty return in Cars 3. But they sell Rust-eze midway through the movie to Sterling because they don’t have money to build the Rusteze Racing Center. As seen on end credits, they go on a vacation.
Other appearances
Rusty and Dusty also appeared in the "And Now a Word from Our Sponsor" story of World of Cars. In the story, Rusty and Dusty are searching for a new race car to represent Rust-eze, and Mack recommends Lightning McQueen, due to being a huge fan of the rookie. Although McQueen is unsure of his decision when the initial offer is put up, he agrees, as long as Mack can be his transporter.
General information
Physical descriptions
Official artwork of Rusty.
Dusty is a 1967 Dodge A100 Van that is also painted in a dark shade of green, but his rust makes the colors appear faded, like Rusty's. Dusty has a stripe across the middle of his body, that reads "DODGE" under his windshield.
Personalities and traits
Though Rusty and Dusty like to joke around a lot, they are both very kind, especially to each other, as well as Lightning McQueen. Both appear to treat their fellow rusty cars as a family.

- Bios
- Rusty Rust-eze
- "Rusty and his brother Dusty created a small empire out of their mother's garage in Boston. It's been over 15 years and their mother has watched their operation grow into a household name with factories all over the country. Rusty and Dusty's mother says she couldn't be more proud of her two boy's accomplishments, but hopes that their next big move will be to finally move out of her garage."[1]
- Dusty Rust-eze
- "Dusty and his brother Rusty like to help out their fellow rusty cars almost as much as they like telling jokes. And that's why they invented Rust-eze Medicated Bumper Ointment. Be it the distinguished browning around the wheel well or the bumper that's completely falling off, Rusty and Dusty are there with a can of Rust-eze to fit it, or at least ease the burning, itching, and soreness that plagues so many cars."[1]
