I make my living with my pickup. 3 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $150. 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 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.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $150 goes:
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $25
• Towing and inspection: $10
• engine head gasket replacement (parts): $115
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Updates from Michael
Good news. Because of your gifts ($65 in total) I met with the mechanic and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
27% there. I made the first payment toward engine head gasket replacement. Thank you.
