Talking Rear hatch question

Hey guys,
New to the group- I just bought a '71 Blazer (4x4).
Trying to fix a few of the little things wrong with it.
The first thing that needs attention is the 'gas chamber effect'
I already had new tailpipes put on, they exited out the back- had them changed to side exit. This helped alot but there's still room for improvement. The the latch on the rear window does not work, only held closed by gravity. It's pretty worn out so I was hoping to buy new hardware for it. I searched online & LMC truck, etc but was not able to find anything. Anyone know of a place to find this?
Some other plans for it are...
700R4 trans
Stock grill (has a tube grill now that is nice but I prefer the stock grill)
New roll bar (current bar is a hack job)
I'm sure I'll come up with more..

Here's a pic of the new beast...Name:  71k5.jpg
