The info I have sent you was cut and pasted from some old emails. This info is from various sources / members and although in the public domain, I prefer you give credit to Devin Enthusiasts in general. (not just Me)
If we found the car and owner I would gladly put them In touch.

Lots of conflicting info on these cars. From research in Hot Rod coverage articles:
1. First car built 1958 with tube frame, 340" Chevy and $295 Devin kit body. 1st place
2. New car for 1959 with Olds engine and similar body. 1st place
3. 1960: same car, 4th place.
4. 1961: same car, 1st place
5. 1962: Same car but with new SS-style Devin body, 406 Ford. 1st place
6. 1963: Same car as 1962, 427 Ford. 1st. Miller also entered an AC Ace with a 289 driven by Dan Morgan. DNF
7. 1964: New car with AC chassis (from Morgan car?). New Devin SS body. 330" sbf engine. 2nd.
8. 1965-66 Same car as 1964 but with 427 Ford. 1st both years.
Corrections?
Where are the cars now? Kreg Jones.

Kreg & Devin Enthusiasts. We all love our classic/historic Sports cars especially those with competition /racing History.
In order to confirm and build accurate record of/on individual cars we need to seek and share data whilst it is still available from those who raced in period e.g 1950s and 1960s. Unfortunately many pilots are now either 80/90 years old or no longer with us, plus
the old grey cells can often unintentially distort facts. Then accurate history of our cars is lost forever.[
].
Any new information on Racing Devins which materialise from this thread will be shared with you and your members.[

With only two small pieces of Ace Chassis left, there is little chance of confirming ID, However maybe some one knows what became of the Aluminium Ace body when AK MIller discarded it for the Devin Fibreglass Body.[?]..[?]
