I make my living with my ride-share car. 8 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $300. 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 3 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. All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal. Where the $300 goes: • engine head gasket replacement (parts): $155 • Labor charges: $70 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $45 • Towing and inspection: $30 Thank you so much. - Anastasia

    Small businesses are the heart of Moscow. Hope you're open again soon. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out.

    • Sending good thoughts, Anastasia. Shared this with my family. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Pattaya.
