Get David back on the road: my pickup repair fund
David drives for a living in Sheffield, and a broken clutch assembly has stopped all income for 6 weeks.
🇬🇧 Sheffield, England, United Kingdom1,987 views
I make my living with my pickup. 6 weeks ago the clutch assembly failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,350. 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 six months if I can just get the vehicle working.
I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $1,350 goes:
• Towing and inspection: $100
• clutch assembly replacement (parts): $990
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $260
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Take care, David. Hope this works out for you. Blessings.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Sheffield
Wishing you peace. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 34 people at work. Thinking of Sheffield.
