BONDOMAN - I have mispoken .It is the CA-38 not the CV-3. Plus .I posted elswhere that the instructions for the kit have as mysteriously appeared .This is something .They disappear and then appear in a place  i would never normally look for them . Inside my stacks of EVERGREEN plastic I have in stock for customer builds -go figure . Thank you anyway .       tankerbuilder

Which kit of the San Francisco do you have?  Trumpeter released two; one in 1942 configuration and the other in 1945.  The kits are very different.

Are you still looking for instructions?  If so, I have the San Francisco and I think its the '42 fit, but I'll have to check the stash.  If you are still in need, e-mail me at robtmelvin@yahoo.com.
