That's the car, but not from Texas. (That's not a Texas plate. 
)
By the way, the exact location of your photo can be determined with some investigation. In addition to the registration plate, note in the background: a) the building (a city landmark at the time, but unrecognizable today), b) cars of a particular brand, and c) the street sign in the upper right corner (difficult to read, I know).
Along with
my earlier hint, this puzzle shouldn't be difficult to crack.
