The driver told me that John Travolta is busy recording Cash Out 3 on the Gulf Coast, the car is going to be in the movie, that he just came from Biloxi, and the car is actually for sale for $10,000.

That's a 1920s Mercedes Roadster, I think. Unclear if a replica or original.
If for sale for $10,000:
I'm pretty sure it's the replica. Sorry I don't have the owner/driver's contact info though.
No sweat, happy to help ID it :)
God why is it always the shittiest 80s cars that people use to build these kits? It's always either a VW Bug, Fiero, or a Chevette in this case.
Also, excellent work finding the exact car OP asked about.
There was also a fox body mustang one, it's so terrible.
Gross not only did they ruin a Fox body but they did it to make it look like a really tacky 1980s Cadillac/Buick Regal hybrid.
If they could afford a decent car to build with, they wouldn't have to build in the first place.
Nah these are typically kits for cars that are unobtanium unless you have millions of dollars to spend. There are probably very few real examples of these big 1920s vehicles left in existence and replacement parts would probably need to be custom made for them. There's certainly a wide gap between a Chevette and a $2 million dollar concours car, yet nothing in between in this market.
