My 53 Chevy truck passenger side window vent has been missing the latch for 18 years.I have the glass out & I have a new latch with the pin. Problem is no one sells the (short rod) that goes from inside the frame that would but up to the glass then go through the hole in the frame.
Odd the hole in the gram is much smaller than the hole going into the latch!
I was going to try & make the pin but I can’t figure out how to make one fit. ???
