My delivery van: Lola's only way to earn a living

I make my living with my delivery van. 5 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $200. 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 two daughters and my mother. Before the breakdown I worked nine 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 $200 goes: • engine head gasket replacement (parts): $150 • Towing and inspection: $15 • Labor charges: $35 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
