I make my living with my school-run minibus. 7 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,450. 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 nine 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. I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update. Where the $1,450 goes: โ€ข engine head gasket replacement (parts): $1,050 โ€ข Road tax and insurance renewal: $250 โ€ข Labor charges: $150 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Horst
