Help Caio replace the clutch assembly and return to work

Without my pickup Caio can't work; a $500 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my pickup. 7 weeks ago the clutch assembly failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $500. 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 nine 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 $500 goes: • clutch assembly replacement (parts): $330 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $50 • Labor charges: $120 Thanks for being kind about this. - Caio
