About the Author

Ben Rosander first became interested in bus conversions about 1967 when his soon-to-be father-in-law converted an old school bus to move his family to Arkansas.

In 1972, Ben found a classified ad in Popular Science Magazine offering a conversion booklet. He bought the book and with his wife, Robin, converted his first bus-a 1962 GMC sKOOLie.

New to the conversion process, Ben blindly followed the advice given, trusting on the expertise of others which, he says, turned out to be a big mistake. Over the years, he reflected on his experience with the notion that he could write a better book. In 2002 Ben completed the 100-page "Select and Convert Your Bus into a Motorhome on a Shoestring", followed by "Dreams on Wheels: Modern Do-it-Yourself Gypsies" and "Bus Conversion Floor Plans".

His writings have appeared in Bus Conversions Magazine and he is a frequent contributor to numerous bus conversion bulletin boards.

Ben and Robin Rosander reside in Washington State and are the parents of six children.
