(Warren) The National Packard Museum
The National Packard Museum opened on Sunday, July 4th, 1999, the first day of the Packard Centennial Celebration in Warren, Ohio. This 7500 square foot facility sits next to Packard Music Hall and Packard Park in the city's historical district. Since 1990, the museum had occupied three temporary sites until a permanent home for the Packard histories was located. In October 1996, the City of Warren offered the museum a 7.5-acre site that was formerly a swimming pool on Mahoning Avenue in Warren. The estimate of $500,000 to convert the pool building and grounds into a museum prompted a capital fund-raising campaign. Thanks to many participants, this campaign was successful. The museum raised $650,000 in cash and in-kind donations from February 1998 to completion on July 4, 1999, the Centennial opening day.

(Berlin Center) Buckeye Automotive Restoration
Buckeye Automotive Restoration Ltd. was started in 2001, due to a love of old cars, by Nathan and his father John Miller. Nathan, who started restoring classic Mustangs at Al’s Mustang Stable in Niles, OH at age 16, worked his way through school restoring old cars. With a degree in Computer Science and bored with the computer field, Nathan said to his father one day, "Let's do this," and the rest is history. Nathan worked as a network engineer during the day and restored classic Mustangs at night, with his father giving him a helping hand. In the beginning and to this day, Nathan and John use his dad's old storage barn as the shop to enjoy their hobby. Shortly after the run of national-winning Mustang restorations, friends began asking Nathan and John to do restoration work on their cars. Gaining a reputation for national award winning work, the demands grew and they eventually quit their jobs to devote their efforts full time to the work that they enjoyed doing. Today, Buckeye Automotive Restoration Ltd. continues to provide the highest quality work for the diverse automotive needs of its clients in all phases of the restoration process. Their shop continues to expand and they are in the process of building a new state-of-the-art 8,000 square-foot restoration shop.
