The up stop on a 68 is a bar in the middle of the door held by 2 quarter inch bolts it stops the regulator it self. the piece on the bottom of the glass is held on by a plastic rivet ther are allways on e-bay 5-10 bucks. you can put thin cardboard in the piece that goes on the glass just so it is not metal on glass hope this helps

It sounds like you are talking the piece that is spot welded on the bottom of the vent vindow frame they seem to be off on a lot of cars we do. what i do is weld it back on the vent window frame when I have the vent window out of the car it is there so you can tilt your vent window in or out for alignment it slides over a peg that is bolted through the bottom of the door where the plug is . Hope this helps

Your best best for obscure window regulator parts is Tom Race and R/T Specialties. I rebuilt my Chalenger regulators last year and found he had the obscure bits that no one else did.
