Hello!! Short story on me, I was a fountain pen head and die hard Pelikan admirer. I had a decent collection and seemingly overnight, my life changed. I sold almost all my belongings (which included my pen collection, I kept a few) and the rest got put into storage for about 5 or so years. I am finally back in a place to be able to get back to it, and I want to try to rebuild a little of my collection.

I recently found a Pelikan 500 body which is why I am here today.

It doesn’t have a nib or a cap, but I happen to have an old nib that should fit.

Would an M200 cap fit the threads? If not I have an old brown dome cap that I could pull the inner cap liner on.

I’m currently waiting for it to arrive in the mail.
But my thought is to use an M200 cap for the clip, inner cap liner and the Pelikan logo cap nut (not sure the actual name of it) and put all into a cut price of brass tube.

Would that work?
