The Cover Of December 2009 Issue of  The NATIONAL FALCON NEWS

 

 
 

 
 

 

Wilma and Jerry Miles are always a delightful and welcome addition to any Falcon event. Their sincere friendship, subtle humor and pleasant demeanor all make them and their 1966 Ranchero a natural gathering place. Jerry always does some new custom thing to the Ranchero every year to keep things fresh.

This cover photo of Jerry's Ranchero in Branson at the October Regional came in as the December issue was already very late in production on the Editor's end.

When I heard that especially now, Jerry needs to be in the thoughts and prayers of his FCA family, I knew there was a good reason for all the computer problems and delays in this issue—so it can serve as a reminder to slow down and consider what's really important and to wish well onto others all through the year. Jerry's Ranchero in Branson sets the Holiday Spirit for this time when we indeed wish for Peace on Earth and Good Will Toward All Men.

Tim Teater (FCA #12381) of Boise, Idaho always wanted to build a custom car. Now he’s done it—and how! See more photos of Tim’s Falcon and read his story on page 3. Tim is the first winner of our FCA Monthly Rolling Photo Contest.

There are no deadlines for this contest. Just collect your pictures or shoot new ones, write up your story, put on a CD and send to the Editor at the address on page 9. Please DO NOT send large photo files by email. A winner will be chosen every month based on quality and originality of photos. Entries with a few paragraphs about you and your Falcon are preferred—everybody wants to know a little bit about the car and its story.

Tim’s photos show all aspects of the car, engine, details, front, back, both sides and interior. His story and specs rally help the car and its history come alive. And he had the perfect cover shot. Congratulations, Tim.

See the October 2009 issue for full details on this and several other photo contests running simultaneously. Then get those cameras out and send in your entries.
