Short historical information: The 39M Csaba scout car was used by the Hungarian Hungarian Royal Army from from 1939 to 1945. The vehicle was built in the Weiss Manfred Factory at Csepel in Budapest, Hungar y.

The car was made of 9mm and 13mm armour plates with rivets. The Csaba, named after the son of Atilla the Hun was equipped with a 20mm heavy gun and 8mm machine gun. The crew consisted of three men.

Assembly instructions: The hardest and the most time-consuming part in the assembly is the building of the wheels and the chassis. The forward and the rear bridges are identical. The elements for the one of them are in file Page_1_2.pdf , that's why you should print 2 copies of it. The exceptions are some elements , which are separated for printing on soft paper in Page_8.pdf , and elements with ID #5, separated because of their different coloring.

Assembling Assemblin g of the turret turret follows. follows. First, assemble the main gun gun and the the machine gun. Mount them on the front plate (element 51) using two metal pins. Fix the pins to the plate with glue drops at each end of the pin as shown on Fig. 9. Then continue the assemble of the rest of the turret and mount it on the top plate of the body as shown on Fig. 10. This assembly assures the mobility of the turret. After that, that, glue the the front plate plate with the the weapons weapons to the turret turret and then - this this whole assembly to the body of the armoured car. 52 56 57 62 63 60 61
