<div dir="ltr">Luis, the Scott Higashi loss really hit me too. I had been talking with him quite a bit and even convinced him to make me one last set of rear hats for my NX. That was maybe 6 months before he passed. I couldn't believe it. We have certainly had a lot of loss in the community the last few years with Jay, Zak, Charlie Barnes, Scott and others. Rough go lately.<div><br></div><div>Brent</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Fri, Mar 26, 2021 at 1:17 PM James McColl <<a href="mailto:james.mccoll@gmail.com">james.mccoll@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Awesome.

I was in touch with Zak on Facebook and chatted with him from time to time. In one of our last exchanges about cars he mentioned that he wished he still had his old NX, it was his favorite car. I can't believe the original community has been around so long.
It's been great seeing things change for everyone, but also sad when we lose good friends. Another great SE-R guy we lost under similar circumstances a few years ago was Scott Higashi, I really felt his loss since he was literally my first "car buddy" , and
we were good friends throughout the years.</div>

Anyway, sad stuff aside I'm glad to see this email list is still around which allows me to stalk all of the old names from a distance :). I went back to my roots and have a nice clean 93 Classic, with a fair amount of goodies (VVL + 6spd). I'll never get rid
of this car <span>🙂</span></div>
