I make my living with my food truck. 5 weeks ago the fuel pump failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,000. 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 family of five. 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 $1,000 goes:
• fuel pump replacement (parts): $500
• Labor charges: $180
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $200
• Towing and inspection: $120
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Gave what I could, wish it was more. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Aberdeen.
