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:

Vanderers,

I've removed the kitchen to prep for rust removal from my '84 Westy. Water cabinet is next. What suggestions do you all have for worthwhile projects or upgrades to the Dometic/stove/cabinets while everything is accessible?

Thanks.

Kevin
