Iirc, this lone vehicle was purchased, was tested as a tankette carrier, then remained at Weiss Manfred and was converted into a workshop truck (used by Weiss Manred factory).

According to the book I mentioned the Hungarians purchased 1000 Ford V8 2.5t trucks from America and 785 from Germany in 1938.
820 of these were rebuilt under the Marmon Herrington licence.
On the other hand, Any idea about this armoured car. It seem an ancestor of 39M Csaba....![]()

Thank you for your help and information.romsitsa wrote: ↑01 Feb 2020 14:11Unluckily there's not much on these subjects in English, except for Mr. Bernards and Mr. Mujzers books.
Information of soft skins is mostly outdated even in Hungarian, but maybe there will be something new and more accurate (heard some rumors).
Artillery and field guns are more or less covered, but the books are also only available in Hungarian.

I can confirm the Steyr 1500 is a Bulgarian one: the Audi-like stencil indicates a vehicle from the Bulgarian Armoured Brigade.
