I'm having trouble with the passenger door. In the collision, the body was kinda... Squoze, for lack of a better word. Now the hole where the passenger door goes isn't as big front to back as the passenger door. I can almost guarantee that I can't get a new passenger door to fit on there... Ever.

I can either use the door that's on it, or I can custom make another in the shop. I'd prefer to use the door that's already there, but the latch doesn't work. Does anyone have any ideas for a home-made latch? The door is bent in a way that it's stuck shut and can be opened with a little prying in the right places. I would just leave it shut, but I want my passengers to be able to get in and out without looking like Bo Duke.
