I was actually going to do the same with my '48 Westinghouse fridge. Kinda tore my heart out to do so, but ones in much better shape can be had at estate sales around here for next to nothing.
I measured the exterior, it fit within their guidelines. Guy comes to pick it up and it's just shy of their interior cubic feet requirement. I thought, well, so they've developed a way to not have to pay out for refrigerators that they figure probably aren't in regular use. Well played.
No matter, I'll just keep it as a backup if I ever need it
