    Video- Barrett Jackson Detail

    I will post this for my friends and customers, Christian and Chris Parker. They make their own videos and this was a 120 hour detail on a '68 Lincoln for BJackson. It sold for 120K. The process was tedious and incredible. I do not think I hold the patience for such work at this level. :)...
