Ahhhhh..... FINALLY!
I got my passenger door fully functional, thanks in part to some parts from cucvrus (latch assembly and a door panel), a few odds n ends (seals and a bunch of screws) from LMCTruck, and a new lock cylinder.
The lock cylinder was part of a
set of two door locks and the ignition lock, all keyed alike, from
GMCPAULS Truck Parts. Nice to finally have non-CUCV keyed locks, and have all three keyed alike. $44.25, shipped. Great serrvice, too. I ordered online on Saturday night, and it shipped in the wee hours of Monday morning, got here on Tuesday. Can't argue with that!

I also installed a new exhaust system, manifold back. "
Flowtech 52525FLT - Flowtech Super StreetDual Exhaust Kits", from Summit Racing. Other than the mufflers, it was a complete bolt up kit, except for needing to buy some clamps and one
simple 2 1/4" extension piece, belled on one end, straight on the other, which I cut down to about 6".
