Actually the fridge and icebox models were produced at the same time.  The
icebox was the "basic" model.  From notes I have seen it appears very few of
them were made.  80 and 81 models.  I actually have the water tank from one.

The fridge the whole time was still the RM182 model but with slight little
variations like the "lit" indicator changed.
