Antoine needs my delivery van repaired to get back to work in Marseille
Antoine drives for a living in Marseille, and a broken radiator and cooling system has stopped all income for 5 weeks.

I make my living with my delivery van. 5 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $600. Without the vehicle I earn nothing.
I have been borrowing from friends to pay rent, and now I have run out of people to ask.
I support my wife and our newborn. Before the breakdown I worked eleven hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next three months if I can just get the vehicle working.
I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $600 goes:
• Towing and inspection: $75
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $300
• Labor charges: $225
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

sending love. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Wish I lived closer to San Diego so I could bring a meal.
