Lillian's my school-run minibus is Lillian's only source of income and needs a gearbox replacement costing $1,650.

I make my living with my school-run minibus. 12 weeks ago the gearbox 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 ten 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 $1,650 goes:
• gearbox replacement (parts): $830
• Labor charges: $360
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $310
• Towing and inspection: $150
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
