Howdy folks, my 1963 thunderbird driver side door slammed shut and now won’t open from the inside or outside.. not sure what to do because I can’t really remove the door panel… any ideas?! Thank you all so much!!

Have you tried locking and unlocking the door with the key? A hard slam may have misaligned the linkage.
 
I’m gonna have to go digging for it, replaced the ignition and the cars been hiding in a garage so I’m just getting her back up… say that doesn’t work, how bad is it breaking into one of these lol
 
Regarding your stuck door. I would spray the latch from the seam of the door and from the back with the window down with wd40. I would guess it got dry and the lub should help. You might gently move the door up and down. A small plastic wedge shouldn't hurt the paint.

Good luck
