Window regulator repair on a 35

Hi guys. Does anyone know if there’s a repair / replacement gear for the regulator? Mine was snapped at the window winder handle pin. I removed it with the view of trying to build it up and redrill the hole, but wondering if there’s a simple replacement part available?

First, just to avoid confusion now and with those who read this forum, it appears this regulator is for a cabriolet or convertible sedan. NOT coupe/fordor.
I do not know for certain... However the stepped design on the clutch housing and the idler gear arrangement look very close to what was used on 1931 Victoria and Fordors.
Snyders Antique Auto, New Springfield OH, 888-262-5712 lists a replacement shaft for the 1931. Their part number A-48107-B. Snyders has a great reputation in the T&A community for both high quality parts and good service.
 
yes internal parts are available but you have to make sure you get the proper tooth count. I prefer to use early rebuilding kit since the parts appear nearly identical to the original. I typically find them on Epay. Good luck trying to find another regulator, very rare for the Cabriolet. The regulator was used on the 34 Cabriolet also. The windows are very heavy and take a tole on the regulator gear and the double helix spring.
 
Thanks guys. Yes the regulator is for a 35 convertible sedan. I’m not home to count the number of teeth but when I do I’ll hit eBay and see what pops up.
