The passenger door was just mangled. This picture does not really show just how bent up some of the parts are, but the main level latch part had a big bend in it and the rods were a bit bent up too. Also the main door handle holder thing was bent down too. I found one of the front latch rods on the floor of the car all rusted. It took a while to sand down all of the oxidation, but it will be worth it in the end.
The latches worked pretty good, they did need to be cleaned up a bit. Some of the plastic is broken off on the top half of where the striker pin connects. On the door it's self the metal is bent up a bit and the plastic around the striker pin has some deep scratches on it. I will have to look into adjusting the door so that it will hit the pins cleaner.
Here is the door stripped down a bit.
