hi jen and maggie, just had my quote from rudd for my tyres and was a bit surprised at how much he has put his posting costs up. he is now charging 28 euro's unlike 18 euro's maggie paid !! and for smaller tyres as mine are only 10" and 12" for a dolls pram.
maggie can you remember when you brought them from him so i can ask why he has put his posting up so much?
the tyres are 60euro's for a set of 4 if anyone is interested.

hi, i'm new to this forum and would be grateful for any good tips re pram restoration. i have just been offered a pram but can't find out anything about it. its made by streng. the body is a wicker frame with beige tweed. the chassis is a folding one, painted brown with leather straps. its in very good condition apart from a split in the clear apron lift! it also has a tassel on each side of the body. if anyone can tell me anything about it ie is it worth cleaning up or respraying or forget about it, i would be grateful. i just don't know what to do! elaine
ps sorry for butting in!

no probs elaine im new too, im about 3 days ahead of you haha.
i was thinking the same as you about my pram as it need the chassis welding and when you find out how much tyres are you start to think is it all worth it just to fulfill an image in my head and its only a dolls pram as well....my excuse is its for my daughter as my husband would not allow me to have a full sized prams in the house other than the babies current one. yours sounds alot more interesting than mine, mines just a hard bodied marmet.

Hello, I'm in need of some more help. The nut is missing that holds the brake handle to the C Chassis. I don't even know what thread it is.
Has anyone got a nut they don't want or at least can you tell me the thread. Thanks in advance.

hi, thanks for the nice welcome. i've tried google but with no joy. my daughter says go for it and change it into something more modern looking but i'm not so sure. thanks anyway,elaine
ps i tried the tip on putting your wheels in the dishwasher and it worked. one old wilson wheel, very rusty, came up a treat on an intensive wash. removed a lot of rust and really cleaned the tyre. which was also easier to remove when hot. thanks again!
