Liberty Township, Ohio – Cooler temperatures are arriving across the Midwest, which means early-morning Cars & Coffee events can get a tad chilly—particularly for those showing up in heater-delete and open-cockpit cars like Cobras and pre-war roadsters.
But a stocking cap, gloves, and a desire to see some super-cool rides still brought plenty of folks out to a fall Cars & Coffee @ Liberty Center event hosted by Tri-State Mustang/Ford Club of Greater Cincinnati. Check out the pics below and stay tuned for a handful of one-off feature articles on some specific cars coming soon too.

Thanks to a penchant for vintage Honda motorcycles, he spends the rest of his time fiddling with carburetors and cleaning chain lube off his left pant leg.
