Default Problem with Passenger side window

Took the 76 to a car show last weekend & when I got home I raised the windows to put her away. I had trouble when I raised the passenger side window. It seemed cocked inward toward the interior. It was going to rain so I just put it in the garage and put the cover on.

Looking at it today - the glass slides forward & backward about 2 inches either way. I have done a ton of work on all parts of this car but never tackled the doors/windows. I know something is loose or broke but.....

Before I tear the door panel off, any insights as to what the problem is?

Thanks,

John

Sounds like the forward roller has either come loose from the glass (nut came off), roller broke or roller came out of guide channel or guide came loose from door.
