If you have ever spent a long period of time building a project car, you know that there are few things in life which are more rewarding than the first time that car roars to life. The relief of everything coming together for the engine to run is only eclipsed by the first time that you pull the car onto the road. At least in that moment, it signals the "end" of the project. Or at least until the next step in the process comes along.In the case of this 1969 Chevrolet Camaro, the owner celebrated the end of the build process with a wicked, smoky burnout. This 1st gen Camaro is fitted with a 540 cubic inch big block V8 and that it packs 750 horsepower. We can also see some aftermarket wheels and a beautiful body, but this video is all about what this Camaro can do, not how it looks.The video begins as this sweet 1969 Camaro RS/SS slowly drives away from the camera. It eases up the dirt driveway on his way to the paved road which would serve as the host for a quick tire smoking session. As the Camaro drives away from the camera, we get a great chance to hear the monster V8 grumble. Based on the sound of the classic muscle car as it is headed towards the road, we’re guessing it has a manual transmission.This Camaro looks and sounds great while creeping to the road, but once on paved ground, the good stuff begins. After a couple quick revs, the driver dumps the clutch and gets the rear tires smoking. With the engine RPMs high, the tires keep spinning as the car smokes its way down the road.Crank up your speakers and enjoy! Tags: 1st Gen Camaro, Big Block, Burnout Fridays, camaro
