Re: Insurance for modified T25

Thanks for the help, I will give those a try :-)

about the wood stove, basically im hooked on this idea and nothing else really does it for me. i thought about taking the chimney out the side. will see how it goes though. my priority is to have the hi-top as otherwise i cant stand in it!
