It's a Messerschmitt. Had a Sachs 1 cylinder 2 cycle motor. My friend's father had one when I was in high school. His other car was a TR-4. Between the two of them he usually didn't need a ride to work, but his wife had a Buick station wagon just in case. I got to drive the "Scmidt" now and then. It was slow, but really stuck to the road, so you didn't have to slow down for the corners.

I don't want the one your friend's father had, and I'm not looking for a DD. I want to buy a piece of Americana that was owned by the King.

Actually, I can't even say that it's Elvis's Messerschmidt. All we can really say about the photo is that it depicts, left to right:
hillbilly, Messerschmidt, dead hillbilly, fat lady, 'nother hillbilly.
