If you use a skeleton theme like Toolbox, _s, or blueprint you'll be able to add your existing code into wordpress fairly easily. Just add the proper code into the correlating PHP files, i.e. your heading and navigation markup into It's fairly easy to convert html sites to Wordpress, since you really just need to add the stylesheet and make minor changes to the structure, and if you're comfortable with HTML and CSS and familiar with PHP, you should be able to figure it out pretty easily. If not, you should be able to find a wordpress junkie who can do it quickly for you. I feel like Wordpress has a pretty soft learning curve and if you pay attention to the Codex and also just look for some articles about the topic you should be able to do it yourself just fine. My only real concern is if you're using a database with your current PHP code, because moving a database might be the only thing that causes you any real headache. |

Try taking some of the content and converting it to PHP. Maybe you can turn it into a theme and get it to work on Wordpress. |

Here's a pretty decent starting point: It's a tutorial on converting a basic html site to a basic WP theme/site. |
