worn door hinge? 94 Vette

Hi Folks
My 94 passenger top door hinge has some play...enough to allow window to hit door pillar when opening ( have learnt to lower window before opening now!)
Can the hinge be re-pinned or serviced or do I buy new one?
Thanks

You may need a vise and grinding wheel to get the pin out of the hinge. Someone posted pics and instructions here some time ago.
