es, it’s the Upperville Horse Show but...add a side of car show. Now in its eighth year, it’s invitation-only, and according to organizer John Denegre: “We focus on local cars owned by local folks, and our motto is “Great People with Great Cars.”
When Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin passed through, John Denegre asked which car he’d like to drive. He replied, “I don’t care as long as I can step on the gas and keep going.”
Joyce Mullins’ 1985 green Ford Delivery Van is a replica of a 1926 British Harrod’s delivery truck. The car show is dedicated to her husband, David Mullins.
Allen Richards’ 1931 Packard 845 convertible coupe, body by LeBaron (one of three known), took the People’s Choice Award.
