My delivery van: Imelda's only way to earn a living
Without my delivery van Imelda cannot work; a $300 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my delivery van. 6 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $300. 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 six 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 $300 goes:
• rear axle replacement (parts): $230
• Labor charges: $20
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $30
• Towing and inspection: $20
Thank you for reading my story.
