Hello Campers, I am looking for the best reference material for the German Heavy Armored car 232 8 Rad. Can anyone point me in the best direction?

Thanks

By the way, it would be great to find some more reference pictures of this vehicle or the 232 (6 rad).
Any link or picture..

Hi John ...Here is the list of books I've put together for the same project some time down the road... I would suggest the Museum Ordenance Special #11 Schwerer Panzerspahwagen (sdkfz.231) 8 rad
by Thomas L Jentz.
Panzer Tracts #13 Panzerspaehwagen
Armored Cars Sd.Kfz.3 to Sd.Kfz.263
by Thomas L. Jentz
And another book I'm quite surprised at is
Military Vehicles in Detail #2 SdKfz231/234 8rad by Terry J. Gander
Of course there are always the good old Squadron and Scheiffer pulications but won't help too much I don't think..

All the best

Rick
