Default '65 Vent Window Wing Pivot Repair

All,

I am missing the vent window wing pivot on my passenger side vent window frame for my '65 Roadster. See attached pictures. My question is can this be repaired or am I going to have to find a donor vent window frame for my car?

Had the same problem years ago when I bought the car; I had to replace the frame.

If you have all the pieces, possibly a good welder could TIG a repair.

Virginia Vettes repairs broken pivot pins on both coupes and convertible vent windows. The pivot pin for a convertible is $32, the weld labor is $15 and the polish of the frame is $60.
We also have completed frame for $200/ea.
