Default stuck door

My 71 coupe has a stuck door in that the lock will not unlock. May be rusted. I do have to replace door panel, but not sure I can get it off.

Any ideas on how to open this door?

It's probably easiest if you look for the same issue in previous threads. There are loads of threads with this problem and solutions.

Not being a computer guru, where do I look for them?

scroll to the top of this page, center of the first thin red line it says search, hit that, then adavnced search, type in " unable to open door", then on the right scroll down to the c3 section and tap that.

https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...rchid=62885721

these are your results. you can try 'stuck' in place of 'unable to 'open'

good luck!
