Help Pedro replace the transmission and return to work
Without my pickup Pedro can't work; a $350 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my pickup. 6 weeks ago the transmission failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $350. 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 wife and our newborn. Before the breakdown I worked eleven 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.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $350 goes:
• transmission replacement (parts): $220
• Labor charges: $60
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $55
• Towing and inspection: $15
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
