35414 SD.KFZ.234/2 PUMA with FULL INTERIOR | Armorama™

Guys, I love MiniArt, but I’m very skeptical of this interior layout. First there is no comprehensive reference for puma interiors. Just doesn’t exist, unless MiniArt has access to something no one else has. There are some turret photos that give an incomplete picture of the turret. The hull is a mystery on par with who shot JFK.

I have serious issues with the rear driver position. There is no known photo of a cut out for the steering wheel in the fuel tank. I have photos of existing 234s - not pumas - that indicate no such arrangement. Doubtful the Germans altered basic construction for 101 sub-variants.

We do know what the hull contained in the way of shell stowage. But not WHERE or HOW they were stowed. If MiniArt were to reveal the source of their interior design, that would help.

I do not purport to be an expert on 234s, but I have followed the series closely for a couple of decades. I just need a little more proof.
