Thats how we drove them back in the day...no fake ass lame Brake Stand Burnouts like kids think looks cool today. My current car is a 17' SS Camaro with a 6spd manual, so on occaission I will still drive like that, but since I don't live in the sticks its not something I can do everyday.
Yeh...when the 69' Chevelles came out it was one of my favorite cars. For 69' It was the Chevelle or Mustang Mach1. Ironically the first car I actually bought right out of HS was a 69' Ply Road Runner with a 383 in 1975. My actual first car was a hand me down 65' Barracuda. What ver. 396 is that one? As they came with 325, 350 or 375hp.
I think he said it's an L78 which would be the 375 hp motor but he also said it was bored 40 over which would make it a 427, I find that hard to believe though because the piston walls might be too thin...
Theres nothing like banging gears with a big block!
Scott, Tk Turbo great video. What a nice car well done.
Appreciate it!

Beautiful Chevelle,love the color 👍
A lot cars back then didn't have stereo, only AM radio. And most cars then didn't have A/C unless you driving a luxury or personal luxury car.
Well driven--

The 69 Chevelles were about 3750 3850lbs....where getting 2700lbs from? The Corvette wasn't that light with a fiberglass body.
Whats the top end on that car?
