shareBabbs married Gretchen but they later divorced. See the Intrepid Traveler's website here: http://www.skypilotclub.com/ . Ken Kesey died several years ago. His son Zane maintains a website about the Pranksters: http://www.key-z.com/. You can easily find stuff about the other Pranksters. Google is your friend.

I just came across this article with photos of the bus this summer at Woodstock.

Babbs drove the original bus and a bunch of Pranksters to Woodstock in '69 and met up with the Hog Farmers. You can see the bus in some of the shots in the Woodstock movie.
It's nice to know they're keeping the spirit alive by still getting out to festivals and such. I've heard they've also been doing the Oregon County Fair for the last several years.
