(Chrysler 300)Texan

[Ray Jones <hurst300@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Today in Mena, AR, in the WalMart parking lot (everything in the south 
and west is in or near the WalMart Parking lot), on a trailer was a 
"Texan".
 1957 I guess, no other name on it, but the Grill badge seemed to be 
DeSoto. Hard to make it out thru the crazed plastic. In sad shape, but 
restorable. It had one "Texan" script over the Texas shape on the left 
rear 1/4 panel, and a different one on the dash. 2 different badges 
were made for this "special"

Don't know the history on these, but assume it was a Special Edition 
created by a Factory Rep. to increase sales in his region.

Didn't have a camera with me, so no photos.
