I make my living with my pickup. 8 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $750. 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 1 children. Before the breakdown I worked ten hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next four 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 $750 goes: β€’ radiator and cooling system replacement (parts): $440 β€’ Labor charges: $250 β€’ Towing and inspection: $60 Thank you so much.

Updates from Savannah

  1. Update from Sheffield: we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. We're at 5% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($20 in total) the plan for radiator and cooling system replacement is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  3. Small update. $20 so far, we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. - Savannah
