In yet another cool car find, a man discovered a whole collection of rare sports cars waiting to be restored in a Michigan shed.
These rare cars had been sitting untouched for many years, sadly gathering dust and dirt.
However, there are always a few car enthusiasts who truly recognize the value of these hidden gems.
The collector shared his exciting find in a video on his YouTube channel, This Week With Cars, where he usually posts his encounters with incredible finds.

Rare sports cars discovered in Michigan shed
Among the treasures was a classic MGB, which he decided not to take. However, two Elva cars were found, which grabbed his attention.
The first rare sports car he covered was Mark V Elva. It needed some bodywork, but the car was mostly intact.
What made this rare car even more special was that it featured a 1622 engine and was known to be one of the last 20 produced.
Interestingly, a mouse nest was discovered in the distributor hole, meaning a full engine clean was needed before it could run again.
Abandoned sports cars can easily be targeted by rodents – similar to this Mark V Elva, a 1972 Lincoln Continental had a whole family of mice living in the trunk.
Another special car resting in the barn was a Barkley SE 328.
Luckily, this exclusive sportscar was complete and could run with just a little work.
The vehilce had its original gauges and switches, with an odometer reading of 10,310 miles, making it a valuable collector item.
An exciting restoration project awaits
Many of the cars he discoverd in the barn had missing keys, thus the collector decided to make new keys for them and continue with their restoration.
As his exploration continued, he came across an Elva Mark II.
The car had an MGA engine and, despite being in a wreck, it remained in fairly good shape.
Overall, it was an incredible find, opening doors for new restoration projects ahead.
