Does anyone know of a good resource (photos) for the 234/2 Puma?

I found this one, but its a bit pricy:

SDKFZ 231/234 8x8 Armoured Car by Terry Gander

You could try these:
"Schwerer Panzerspaehwagen (SdKfz. 234)" by Thomas Jentz in the series "Museum Ordnance Special Number 24",
PUMA - Sdkfz.234/4 - Waffen Arsenal 096,
Sd,Kfz 234 #20 in Kagero's 'Photosniper' series (great book)

If you need any help send me a message, I have a nice collection of 234 series reference material.

Cheers

Chris M.;

The 234/x is, in all its incarnations, a fav subject of mine, and a Dragon /2 ("Puma"), or maybe the /4 kit is about to start up as my first 2015 build.

Sad to have to say this, but there is not actually a whole lot of good photo record out there for any of the SdKfz 234/x series - the 234 was a late-war development, and relatively few of any type were actually produced and sent into action. There are few technical and fewer still interior photos out on the type. There were many more of the previous 8-rad series produced over longer time and they saw much wider service. So... they are the major subject in many texts on German WWII 8-rad A/C.

That said, there are small numbers of 234/x pics around - I found the T. Gandler volume you noted to be pretty good - at least it provides a couple of pics from inside a Puma (/2)! And, if you can pick it up off eBay for under 20 shipped, probably about as good a single vol as you'll find on 8-rads. But there are others out there and each has its treasures.

The texts listed by Anthony S. in this thread offer a few other images of this series. No one paper work that I know of gives what I would call a really good look at the general type or at any variant; each provides some range of pics. There is perhaps more confusion and myth than solid data - any work which suggests the 234/4 a "Puma" in its title has my doobs right up front! But... In any case, the best interior photo treatment may be of one or another museum relic of the /3 (short 75mm gun) or /4 (PaK 40) types, as these still exist.

IF what you are looking for is more about exterior details... I think the best source is really the big and free (save for search time) WWW. Do some Google searches and check out the available pics and threads. There is some wealth to be seen. That, and check the various build and discussion threads about these rare A?C posted on various sites, including Armorama.

IF you have identified some specific questions, post them and you may well strike some gold, as folks have stashes of info!

Cheers!
