I make my living with my food truck. 5 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $700. 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 younger brothers and sisters. Before the breakdown I worked nine 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. I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update. Where the $700 goes: • engine head gasket replacement (parts): $330 • Labor charges: $125 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $165 • Towing and inspection: $80 I hope life is good to you.
