St. Petersburg

I make my living with my food truck. 7 weeks ago the fuel pump 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 family of five. Before the breakdown I worked twelve 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. All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal. Where the $550 goes: • Towing and inspection: $100 • Labor charges: $180 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $270 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
