Help Lucas replace the fuel pump and return to work
Without my food truck Lucas can't work; a $1,600 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my food truck. 12 weeks ago the fuel pump failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,600. 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 2 children. Before the breakdown I worked eleven 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 $1,600 goes:
• fuel pump replacement (parts): $1,250
• Labor charges: $120
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $160
• Towing and inspection: $70
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Good luck, Lucas. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Greetings from Manila
