I too would be interested in hearing from people who have converted a normal bus into a pop-top camper. I'm currently trying to decide whether to splurge and buy a camper as a second bus or to convert my current '79 to a camper. It seems as though really nice campers are running $2000-2500 in this area...a bit steep for me to put out at one time. However, the conversion might end up costing more than just buying a decent Westy...BUT, it could be done more gradually making it a bit more managable financially. It would carry the potential for more frustration though! ;) Pros or cons from anyone who has attempted this operation? Either way I'm sure I'll have fun with 'em. Ken Stevens....'79 bus
