Parker 51 Special - where to buy a replacement cap?

[InfernoOrangeSS]

I bought a Parker 51 Special pretty cheap, but it doesn't have a cap. Does anyone know where I can find a replacement? Searching online hasn't helped. All I come up with are places to buy complete pens.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I don't know if John Mottishaw or Richard Binder would have one they're not using or at least something suitable. Email them and see what they say.

Lott brothers in the Dakotas. I believe they are 5 star pens

Brian's correct, those guys have the parts! I've bought many items from the Lotts to finish up repairs.

Many thanks! I will have to look up that link. I am not familiar with the names that were given. Are they on here or do they have their own sites?
Thank you all for the help!

They're two of the best pen restorers/nibmeisters in the US. John Mottishaw restored a Parker 51 for me and my great grandmother's Vacumatic. Google their names and have a poke around their websites. Loads of good info.

That said, it looks like fivestarpens likely has what you need. Good luck!

Ernesto Soler at Parker51.com had what I needed. It's on he way.
