I went down to Indianapolis Wednesday and checked out the cars there.  Got a Dodge Thrill ride while there, probably the last chance for me as I don't think those will continue much longer.  Nice free Dodge tee shirt from the ride too.
A coworker went with me and wanted to bid on an IHC pickup, it ended up selling for about twice what he wanted to pay.  In fact, most cars I watched were selling high. So much for Hagerty saying prices are down?

Thought I would add the guides I put together to this thread if anyone did not want to go through the other threads. Should answer Cuda Joe's question on setting ride height. Also, included the service manual section for same info.

The wiring bracket on the power brake booster you asked about. Better view with no wires running through it.

I want to buy 2 of these bypass wires. Sent a message to @crackedback some time ago and never got a response. Is he still doing them? Or anyone else making them. I'm in Canada

I went to a local battery shop and they made one for me.

I ordered a case of WIX 51515 filters and a case of 51085 filters from Amazon, at a great price, and they are both made in the USA. For you Canadian guys, that was Amazon.com not Amazon.ca.

I will try that tomorrow and see if it works. I don't think there is an adjustment, so I may just remove the latch to see what's going on.

That does seem to be a bit of a puzzler. I looked at my passenger's side door latch, and one idea that comes to mind is checking the latch without closing the door. Meaning, with the door open, are you able to depress the latch manually and then, using the interior handle, "open" or trigger the mechanism? That will really tell you whether the handle doesn't work or if there's an issue with either the rod or something in the latch.

Also, you could take off the handle from the inside and try and use the rod to trigger/unlatch to door.

I don't know of anyone who sells aftermarket latches.
