Well, finally getting here, to 2008, and all the hottest rides spotted back then. I have been to only 2 car shows, as I recall, where I've taken pretty much all of the pictures with classic, muscle cars & hot rods that year.
The first photos were taken at the 4th of July parade in downtown Bothell, and it looks like one of the main attractions were the military vehicles, most from WW II, some very much restored and brought to the condition they were originally more than 60 years ago, and with drivers in full uniform to blend more fully with the olive green of the vehicles.
One of the things I liked about that was the vintage military motorcycle, which is awesome.
Here are some videos, below, taken at the 4th of July parade in downtown Bothell, WA where they had many military vehicles parading, some with guns, and completely equipped for battle.

3rd video, below: Here's a cool vintage or custom truck designed & built to look like an antique dump truck, very cool & original.
