My pickup: Faith's only way to earn a living
Faith drives for a living in Kinondoni, and a broken radiator and cooling system has stopped all income for 4 weeks.

I make my living with my pickup. 4 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system 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 younger brothers and sisters. 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.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $200 goes:
• radiator and cooling system replacement (parts): $115
• Labor charges: $30
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $45
• Towing and inspection: $10
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
