Roman needs my pickup repaired to get back to work in Birmingham
Without my pickup Roman can't work; a $450 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my pickup. 5 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $450. 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 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 $450 goes:
• Labor charges: $105
• Towing and inspection: $130
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $215
Thanks for reading all this.
