I make my living with my food truck. 5 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,550. 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 younger brothers and sisters. Before the breakdown I worked eleven 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. All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal. Where the $1,550 goes: โ€ข Towing and inspection: $80 โ€ข radiator and cooling system replacement (parts): $1,150 โ€ข Labor charges: $320 With deep gratitude, Ingrid

  • Stay strong. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Greetings from Thrissur.

    • so sorry you're going through this. Shared this with my family. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.

      • Rooting for you, Ingrid. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Manchester.

        • Small businesses are the heart of Stockholm. Hope you're open again soon. Wish I lived closer to Adelaide so I could bring a meal.

          • Thinking of you, Ingrid. Hope this works out for you.
