Kinsley needs my delivery van repaired to get back to work in Peoria

Without my delivery van Kinsley can't work; a $1,650 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my delivery van. 4 weeks ago the clutch assembly failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,650. 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 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 $1,650 goes: • clutch assembly replacement (parts): $970 • Labor charges: $390 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $260 • Towing and inspection: $30 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
