I'd suggest a closed cell foam as insulation after you finish with the rust. Also, if you don't use the external city water port, convert it into a fan housing to draw out warm air from behind fridge. I did that and it did move warm air out, and that has to help with fridge efficiency. Picture of port, on bench, with fan shown here: http://shufti.wordpress.com/2010/08/10/westy-city-water-port-fan-mod/
