History of Highland Park Automotive

Duane Beers, owner and founder of Highland Park Automotive, was always an automotive mechanic and performance enthusiast. After running his racecar team Duane decided to open up his services to general repair customers, “I wanted to provide customers with a place that offered the highest expertise in auto repair.”

In 1982 Duane opened up the Highland Park auto repair facility. Duane ran this facility by himself for the first several years but as the auto repair customers grew in numbers we added more people to our team.
