Help Ramón replace the transmission and return to work

Without my delivery van Ramón can't work; a $1,000 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my delivery van. 8 weeks ago the transmission failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,000. 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 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 $1,000 goes: • transmission replacement (parts): $770 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $200 • Towing and inspection: $30 Glad we found this place.

    • Rooting for you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Makati but we're thinking of you. God bless.

      • I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Tarragona

        • good luck. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care.

            • Thinking of you and your family, Ramón. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Nuremberg

              • You're not alone. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Wish I lived closer to Narayanganj so I could bring a meal.
