Looks like a great selection of Fords, are they all owned by you or are they customers cars that you look after?
I dont think you will have much trouble getting someone to take up your fantastic offer!! Also of course its coming up to your Spring and Summer so the weather should be nice as well!

Wow!! That is some collection of cars, do you race or show any of them? Do you use any of them as daily drivers?
I believe you are not in the motor Industry?
Whoever comes over will be kept pretty busy to get them all sorted out to how you want them.

He says he is paying for flights and accommodation AS WELL, as well as paying wages as its titled paid trip is how i would read it. I doubt very much he is expecting someone to work for free.
Anyone interested will obviously sort everything out before they agree to go.
