JULY 27, 2008, Sunday, Guilford - "Time Machines 2008," 30th Annual Car Show & Flea Market, presented by the CT Area Classic Thunderbird Club, Inc. We've just heard, as of a mid-February 2008 e-mail message from car show chairman Fred Klaus, that the 2008 version of the big Time Machines antique auto show & flea market has a new home base: The Guilford Fairgrounds! Quoting from Fred's e-mail dated 2/15/2008: "...It is official. The Time Machines Car Show and Flea Market has moved from Durham to the *Guilford Fairgrounds.* It will be held on July 27th (always the fourth Sunday in July). We think the Guilford Fairgrounds offer much improved facilities, just off I-95 exit 59. There is a larger area for show cars, spectator parking, and permanent bathrooms. We will have numerous food vendors so we will have no lines. The layout is excellent. We will do more advertising this year and hopefully the show will be as big as ever. With this new location we have room to grow. ..." Thanks Fred for the very exciting updates, and readers please be aware we'll be updating this listing as we hear more about the all-new-for-08 details!
