Billiard:

Can you open the door manually? We'll need to know that to either start with frozen bolts or with a vaucum issue.

Welcome aboard and I wish I was going to RI, I'd take you up on that offer!

Hi B1,
Welcome! A 70 convertible! Nice!
Pictures sure would be appreciated and enjoyed.
There are a couple of headlight and wiperdoor threads going on right now; Willcox is a great source of help. As he said a little more description of what has been happening (or not happening) will help get you some guidance.
Regards,
Alan
