Use the passengers side for reference if you haven't messed with those gaps yet. Just a few ideas..
Those were old pixs with the skins replaced to see how the door fit against the GM quarter ...and the car is now sitting on its suspension, trying to get things lined up and gap the door-quarter panel.

I did both door skins at the same time, so no reference there, the quarter panel is still on the pass side but the AMD skins are not the same as the GM ... grrrrrr!

I'll line up the front on the rocker and see if that helps. Do the professional shops gap everything W/O weatherstripping? And then just squish it when the door is closed?

Thanks for commenting .... any other ideas or pictures of 67 gaps?

Michael
