I got the passenger door to close right by taking out the latch and hammering the latch area sheet metal back into proper alignment.  It appears that someone who was really drunk or high broke into the slider and then proceeded to pry the doors open with some kind of bar, from the inside.  How messed up would you have to be to not just realize you could unlock the doors once you crawled through the slider?

Man how I wish these old trucks could idle up to the camp fire and tell you their life story...

The drivers door is not working out.  I fixed the latch area and it is somehow bent down in the hinges or the door skin.  That latch is all beat to heck so I may just source another door.  We took it off for no so we don't have to close it :).
