That's the Dream Cruise, the official version. The Woodward cruise
goes back to the beginnings of the car business. Woodward was the
nation's first paved road, and the carmakers began parading their
wares there early on.

The Dream Cruise started as a fundraiser for a soccer field in
Ferndale in 1995.

There is, of course, the founding myth: the story of how Larry Harvey
and his friend Jerry James burned a wooden man upon the beach in San
Francisco on June 21, 1986.
So, according to the websites, Burning Man is a decade older. Judging
by the photo, I think it's just the participants of the Woodward
cruise that are half a century older.
