Welcome to The Shades of the Past Car Club Marshall Mn official web site. We are based in the City of Marshall, located in the Southwest region of Minnesota. 2011 marked our 25th anniversary and we celebrated the occasion with our largest car show yet! It was a beautiful sunny day and with over 350 registered participants, had a little something for everyone. It was a great example of America's love affair with Classic Cars. 

Whether you are a serious car aficionado or just a weekend wrench head, cruise around our web site and hopefully you'll get an idea of what we are all about. Take note of our upcoming events, peek in our For Sale section, or even become a Shades Member! Check us out on Facebook and post any questions or comments you may have, we'd love to hear from you! Our members have plenty of experience in restoring cars, and might just have a solution that will help with your rebuild. 

Message from Pat Dero:

Greetings Car Enthusiast!

We are proud to be celebrating the 100 year anniversary of the Yellowstone Trail at our annual Yellowstone Trail Heritage Days event May 11-13, 2012 in historic downtown Hudson, Wisconsin.

What would a celebration of this historic automobile trail be like without the cars that were the inspiration to get the trail constructed? Well we don’t want to find out. We’re once again opening up our historic toll bridge road and streets to car enthusiasts to display your vehicles. Registration is underway for classic automobile owners who want to participate in the Car Show and/or the Poker Run Road Rally on May 12, 2012. Attached is the registration form and schedule of events (don’t miss the Gangster Cruise or All Autos Silent Film Festival on Friday night!).  A lot for dedicated overnight trailer parking is available (with video surveillance).

If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact us at 715.386.8411/800.657.6775 or visit www.hudsonwi.org/yellowstonetrail. Please forward this information to anyone you feel would be interested.

Don’t miss out – It’s going to be a “Doozy!”
