Help Esteban replace the radiator and cooling system and return to work
Without my delivery van Esteban cannot work; a $550 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my delivery van. 3 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $550. 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 ten 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.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $550 goes:
• radiator and cooling system replacement (parts): $350
• Labor charges: $125
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $40
• Towing and inspection: $35
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
