I make my living with my tuk-tuk. 3 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,050. 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 two daughters and my mother. Before the breakdown I worked ten 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 $1,050 goes:
• engine head gasket replacement (parts): $820
• Towing and inspection: $90
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $140
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Take care, Mackenzie. Looking forward to the next update. I hope July is when things finally get easier!
so sorry you're going through this, Mackenzie. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. All the best
hang in there. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Geelong.
