If you get this question answered, I will be a happy camper.  I'm in  the 
exact same boat.  I, however, went crazy and replaced rusted A pillars,  B 
pillars, outriggers, floors, rockers; basically everything from the center  
frame 
out so I figured I screwed up something big time.  I walked away from  the car 
several months ago in extreme disgust after spending a whole s**tload of  time 
beating on panels just to get the doors closed again with the weather  strip 
and latches in place.  Of course, after beating on metal, I had to  spend an 
inordinate amount of time repairing all the chipped paint from the  process.
 
I'm thinking I should have let the car go to the "crusher".  I'm fed  up with 
this car!

Also, I  got my weather-stripping attached for the door.  Prior to  attaching
the strip, I did have the door opening and closing smooth as  butter and gaps
looking very good.  Now everything looks like  sh*t.  I have to slam the door
t get it to latch.  I have  monkeyed around with the latch position and bent
the little metal flange  that hold the weather-strip inward.  It is very
slightly better but  still looks like hell and I have to slam and push on the
door.  The  weather-strip does not appear to be binding anywhere.  Thanks  in
advance!
