First off, welcome to w-body.com

 

Nice car! Where are you located?

 

The issue is likely the linkage is out of adjustment for the outside handle. It's accessible be removing the plastic linkage cover on the door behind the handle (one speed nut and one screw to remove the cover)

Adjusting the linkage is pretty easy. Remove the clip on the nut on the rod that connects to the handle. Move it up and down as you see fit until the door latch works as desired.
