Driver's door not closing properly - wind noise 700 1987

Does the door make any unusual noises when it closes, esp. from the latch? It could be that the bolts that attach the hinges to the door frame have loosened and the door has slipped or sagged slightly. To adjust these bolts, remove the trim piece located to the left of the driver's foot. When I replaced a hinge on my door I used a jack to raise & lower the door while open, and through about 15 minutes of trial and error adjustments I got it to close properly.
