Find out both the native and available pivot formats they can supply the file in. If they can supply certain native formats or a pivot format like DXF (either 2D or 3D, but most likely only 2D because they're asking you to produce 3D) then I have a number of modeling and rendering tools that I can use to create a 3D model and render it, but there are *lots* of variables involved.
For example, is your client expecting "Revenge of the Sith" quality rendering, or is a solid shader okay? What kind of background will it composite on? If you find this out and get back to me I can either help you myself or perhaps guide you in the right direction.
