I did a little search and Tomlinson's Dari-Mart in Walla Walla Washinton went BK in 1977-78. The founder of the operation Gilbert "Gib" Tomlinson died earlier this year in Pasco, Washington. His grandson now runs the farming operations and Gib used to fly. I wonder if this bus is in a hanger someplace, or was it sold as one of the assets in the BK???? Shocked

In 2005 we found a 62 standard with Cactus Pete's logos under the repaint/ house paint. It had an old registration from Cactus Pete's in Jackpot, NV on the dash.
