Default Loose window glass?

I've been putting together a 78 that I rescued from some guys front lawn. I've got the drivers and passenger side windows in, but they have alot of play in them (in and out towards and away from the body) Will this go away once I get interrior door panels or is there something else that needs to be addressed here? Thanks

Are the window fuzzies still there. They are actually bumper blocks for the windows. There should be 2 per window. I currently have my doors all apart for some new rollers and bumpers and I need to adjsut everything. They were not bad but not good either.
