window glass bearing fastner...?

I'm trying to figure out what i need. The drivers window (electric) on my '69 442 is missing what i think is the "glass bearing fastener and cap" as described in the '69 service manual, page 6-65 figure 6-82 parts# 8 and 9....i think. It goes through the window and attaches to the rear slide channel to assure the window opens and closes straight. The window flops some and does not close straight.
Any guidance, thoughts help is DEEPLY appreciated!

not exactly sure how to post pictures.........door location of missing window bolt.jpg

hole in window for bearing.jpg

not sure if this does it....pic's aren't very good....one shows the location at the back of the door where the missing bolt/bearing is; the other is the hole....
hope this helps...!

sorry Mark.....i'll try again......the three pics show the location in the door where the missing piece holds the glass to the channel running up and down..i think to keep the back of the window in place; the next pic is inside the door frame...; the 3rd. is the page in the service manual showing what i believe is the missing fastener.....

i went thru everything i have and i dont have it...new...i really think those are reproduced and nice..

Try a GM dealership, just tell them its a chevelle...i bet they are still avail...that was used up to the 80s

try an old glass/windshield shop..youd be surprised what they have..especially if they've been around for 40 or 50 years

old body shops are gold mines for that stuff too..it was a common repair

Mark, thanks so much for checking...I appreciate it!!
I'll try the GM guys and body shops.
Digging around some more in the door skin, the front one's not in very good shape either... looks like it'll be fun to replace.....
Thanks again!

Yeah I think the pin just sheared off.

I think that's a "regulator roller and pin" assembly. May be able to get something from ebay that would fit.

I think Koda is right..i just searched..Doorman was an OEM manufacturer for gm..try these..it says 76 to 2001...thats a long spread

Take the parts with you..i forgot..NAPA carries Au-Vee-Co, and they supply body shops today...they have all the good stuff and supplied GM too
