Utami's my food truck is Utami's only source of income and needs a gearbox replacement costing $100.

I make my living with my food truck. 7 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $100. 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 younger brothers and sisters. Before the breakdown I worked twelve 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.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $100 goes:
• Towing and inspection: $25
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $45
• Labor charges: $30
Glad we found this place.

Sending good thoughts, Utami. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Cairo.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Utami?
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about towing and inspection, advice is welcome too. Thanks, that means a lot.
So sorry you're going through this, Utami. Small businesses are the heart of Jakarta Selatan. Hope you're open again soon. Take care.
hope the shop reopens soon. I'll check back for the next update. All the best.
