Yet, just as farewells were being whispered throughout the racing community, something miraculous occurred. Quick's determination reignited, and his passion for his cherished steed burned brighter than ever. With unwavering resolve, he embarked on an arduous quest to rebuild, devoting countless hours to resurrecting the Mustang from its wreckage.
The rebuilding process was painstaking but essential. The Mustang's front half underwent a complete chassis overhaul, revitalizing its structural integrity. Every body panel was replaced, erasing the scars of the crash and breathing new life into this iconic car. Under the hood, a potent Hemi engine now roared, accompanied by a brand-new ProCharger blower to replace its predecessor tragically lost in the accident.

For fans who have followed Quick's racing career, witnessing this resurrection was a moment of sheer joy and celebration. The Mustang had undergone multiple transformations over the years, evolving from a colossal 762 cubic inch Fulton motor to a twin-turbo small block, then a twin-turbo Hemi, and finally settling into its current ProCharger Hemi setup. Last year, the car achieved remarkable success on America's List, securing a coveted position among the top rankings and proving its street prowess.
While Quick faced initial challenges in transitioning to the ProCharger setup, his tenacity and relentless pursuit of perfection enabled him to overcome every obstacle. With the rebuilt Mustang now faster than ever, fans eagerly anticipate the trail of destruction he will leave in his wake during future races.
