I make my living with my food truck. 12 weeks ago the engine head gasket 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 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 three 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: • engine head gasket replacement (parts): $1,000 • Labor charges: $200 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $280 • Towing and inspection: $70 Every share and every dollar helps.
