An amazing discovery in the Great Lakes.

A steamship that sank some 90 years ago was just found at the bottom of the Georgian Bay in Lake Huron in Ontario, Canada.

Divers got a chance to explore the wreckage of the Manasoo, which sank in 1928.

If that wasn't cool enough, still on board was a 1927 Chevrolet Coupe!

Divers say that besides all the barnacles covering it, the car was in excellent condition, considering it was 200 feet below the surface.

Experts say it's unlikely that the steamship will ever be brought to the surface. But they're optimistic the classic car will one day be retrieved and displayed in a museum.
