Hui needs my delivery van repaired to get back to work in New York

Without my delivery van Hui can't work; a $1,600 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my delivery van. 12 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,600. 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 ten 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 $1,600 goes: • engine head gasket replacement (parts): $860 • Labor charges: $310 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $300 • Towing and inspection: $130 Thank you for reading my story. - Hui

    Small businesses are the heart of New York. Hope you're open again soon. Wish I lived closer to St. Petersburg so I could bring a meal. Blessings
