Get Sumbal back on the road: my food truck repair fund
Sumbal's my food truck is Sumbal's only source of income and needs an engine head gasket replacement costing $50.

I make my living with my food truck. 10 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $50. 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 twelve 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 $50 goes:
• Towing and inspection: $15
• Labor charges: $25
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $10
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
