I make my living with my food truck. 4 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $505. 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 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 $505 goes:
• radiator and cooling system replacement (parts): $380
• Labor charges: $55
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $65
• Towing and inspection: $5
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Sending love, José. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Put this on a community board in Jakarta Selatan this morning. All the best.
how is José doing now?
sending love, José. This could happen to any of us. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Take care.
You're not alone. Shared it with a few friends. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Rooting for you. Hope this works out for you. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings.
