A kid's
go cart made from a
scaffold plank, some bits of wood (axles), a piece of rope (steering) and a set of
pram wheels (preferably 'Silver Cross'). The term was certainly used in the Tottenham area of N.London during the late 60s.
Example:
'Look at those
old pram wheels. They'd be great for a jigger'.
