Gave it a bath and figured out the rear door issue. I bought an S10 tail gate to convert the latches with. While disassembling the panel truck door, I found the missing top latch. It had fallen down into the door and was held in with the threaded rod that actuates the latch. I put everything back with new hardware and made a few adjustments and everything works! Yay!

Driving down back roads, you can smell the exhaust fumes. Running down the interstate, your eyes burn like you've been pepper sprayed. I extended the exhaust tip out and under the bumper. Hopefully that'll fix it.
