Default Driver door won’t open 85

Need help please......went to open the driver door today and the outside handle broke off. The inside handle doesn’t work.

How do I get the door open if I can’t remove the panel to get at the mechanism? I’m not limber enough to keep crawling through the window.

Thanks for any information

John

I was able to get the door open and the panel off.


Thanks,

You know, it might be very helpful to some other folks if you would describe the process you went through to finally get the door open.

There is someone else who posted that they can't get the driver's door on their 86 to unlock.
