alright sooo When my door opens as wide as i can open it. it gets locked open and i really have to force it closed it also make a horrible banging sound.... I know it's not rubbing the fender beacuse i have the fenders off and know it's not touching anything iver been doing clearnace testing lol i even locked my self in the car ...... found out the the door realease does not work from the inside... i was in the car for 10 mins before my mom came out to see what i was doing LOL another issue is the door does not seem to close all teh way like i mean it's sticking out a bit and i can push it in a litle further but i won't stay =( like my drivers side does not do any of this ... it's Perfect besides the window not opening LOL..
One more thing how hard is it to change the door locks and what should i use to pop the door panels off if i don't have a trim remover tool?
Any help would be great guys =)

The catch on the hinge-white grease needed (bang)
door striker is out too far (door not closing)
use the right tool-its a small fork--most of it should be on with screws that vintage

Always good to keep 1 window handle in the car so you can get out.lol sounds like the linkage is not hooked up or the mechanism is in the locked position.The front I have with hide away headlights would look cool on your car.My whole car would look good in your driveway.

when you hang the door at first do it without the striker in place, align the back of the door to the quarter panel and rocker so that all your body lines are straight. do this without front fenders inplace the put your striker in and ajust it so you only need to lightley push to close the door, door panels get the proper tool or be realy carefull with a realy wide screwdriver, locks are easy pair of vise grips pull clip skin nuckles
