In the YouTube video, IMSTOKZE shows the audience a barn full of farming equipment that had been left behind by previous owners.
Then, the YouTuber walks over to a small shed where he finds a vintage classic car with massive headlights.
“I’m not sure what car it is,” the YouTuber states, at first.
He said the car was rusted over from the years it had been sitting on a “dilapidated” property.
Currently, the video has garnered nearly 16,000 views and over 50 comments.
IMSTOKZE’s YouTube page has amassed over 59,000 followers who are eager for more shocking stories about the auto industry.
“What I’ve uncovered today is nothing short of astonishing—two incredibly rare vintage cars, hidden away since the 1920s and 1930s, frozen in time. While the world outside moved on, these automotive relics remained still, untouched by progress, sealed away in history,” he captioned the video.
“Covered in dust, their once-glorious bodies now marked by time, these cars are living artifacts from an era when automobiles were crafted with elegance, precision, and mechanical mastery.”
“The world forgot about them, but somehow, against all odds, they survived.”
According to Auto Evolution, one of the cars had a recognizable “Triumph” logo on a blue background.
The vintage find could be a Triumph Gloria sports car made by the Triumph Motor Company in Coventry, England between 1933 and 1938.
The automaker made a whole range of sporting saloons, coupés, tourers, 2-seater sports cars, drophead coupés, and golfer’s coupés during that time.
The first models in the Gloria range were a 9.53 horsepower four-cylinder and a 12.95 horsepower six-cylinder model.
Later in the video, the YouTuber pans to another vintage car that had been hiding under a bunch of old furniture.
The classic car had been dismantled and partially covered by moss.
1934 Triumph Gloria
Triumph made an impressive range of Gloria sporting saloons between 1933 to 1938.
This included several coupes, tourers, two-seater sports cars, drop-head coupes, and golfer’s coupes.
All except the last two were powered by 4 or 6 cylinder Coventry Climax overhead inlet and exhaust valve designed engines.
Fewer than 2,000 Gloria units were produced per year.

The badge suggests it’s a Rover 12 which was first produced by the British Rover car company between 1905 and 1948, as stated by Auto Evolution.
The family car was first introduced between 1905 and 1907 and returned from 1910 to 1923.
The model shown in the YouTuber’s video was actually part of the third and final iteration which was produced between 1934 and 1948.
In the last clip, the YouTuber points to a final car known as a Morris Minor.
Specifically, the vehicle was a Minor 1000 version — only 850,000 units were manufactured.
All three vintage cars were found on the abandoned barn somewhere in the UK.
