Help! Can't open the door.

Not a real emergency. I'm not locked in. I picked up a '81 C-30, no electric windows or locks. I cannot open the passenger door. Is seems to be unlocked but won't budge. Anybody got a solution?

take off the door panel and make sure the rod is connected to the lock mechanism, try pulling on it with a pair of pliers. if stuck spray with wd40 and try again later
