Ricardo needs my tuk-tuk repaired to get back to work in Joliet

I make my living with my tuk-tuk. 3 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,850. 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 family of five. Before the breakdown I worked twelve hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next four 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 $1,850 goes: • engine head gasket replacement (parts): $1,150 • Labor charges: $400 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $180 • Towing and inspection: $120 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Ricardo
