Ingrid needs my food truck repaired to get back to work in Niterói
Ingrid's my food truck is Ingrid's only source of income and needs a rear axle replacement costing $600.
🇧🇷 Rio de Janeiro, Brazil1,773 views
I make my living with my food truck. 6 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $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 4 children. Before the breakdown I worked twelve 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 $600 goes:
• rear axle replacement (parts): $410
• Labor charges: $120
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $50
• Towing and inspection: $20
I hope life is good to you.
