  This seems to be the Flxible/Rohr Transbus entry. Note the U.S. Department of Transportation logo behind the front wheels.
  
  "On May 13, 1975, one of the Flxible prototypes caught fire during testing in Arizona and was destroyed, but no one was injured; at the time, it was carrying two technicians, instruments, and sandbags to simulate a full passenger load."
  
  This series may have been shot at the Chula Vista factory because of the unique power transmission towers in the background of some photos.

  This has a ghost image of the adjacent photo 'Hill_00027' visible, but as mirror-image suggesting 'face-to-face' contact during storage. Both by the San Francisco photographer J.D.GIVENS and including a distinctive 'Oriental-style' pavilion.
