Delaware Classic Car Scene

Classics in Delaware

Delaware's classic car scene punches above its size. The Hagley Car Show at the Hagley Museum and Library each September draws pre-war and early post-war classics from across the mid-Atlantic. The AACA First State Region runs active chapter events. Brandywine Valley collectors (many with old DuPont-era ties) maintain notable pre-war and European collections. The state's proximity to Pennsylvania's Carlisle Events and Hershey AACA means Delaware collectors are heavily plugged into the largest collector car events in the country.

Donated classic cars from Delaware skew toward pre-war and early post-war American classics — Packards, Cadillacs, Ford Model As, Chevrolet Master Deluxes, and the occasional Auburn or Pierce-Arrow from estate situations. Mid-century American sedans and convertibles from beach-house collections (Lewes, Rehoboth, Dewey) come in regularly. European sports cars from Brandywine Valley garages appear in the donation pipeline. Sussex County rural barn finds add project cars and parts cars to the mix.
