A little Googling and I found this:
http://www.sd455.com/moviestatefair.htm
It states (and it must be true; I found it on the Internet :-):
    "Wayne has a waaaay-kool V-8 powered, custom-bodied, 
    sports car with a locked rear-end (???) that he plans to enter 
    in the big dirt-track Cup-Race at the Fair. The car appears to 
    be a Devon, like the type Ak Miller raced at the Pikes Peak 
    Hill Auto Climb in the early-1960's." 
Take it for what it's worth.
If it was the Allard, then there is this:

It would look good in your garage.
