My mother in law picked up a decent kegerator for me at a garage sale for $20. It was worth it 5X over just for the co2 tank and regulator it came with.

It's not a pretty site, but I already have a nice converted Sanyo upstairs, so the plan is to use this as a lagerator/basement kegerator.

It seems to power on alright, but the door is warped. Here are some pictures:

I tried bending the door back with no luck. I'm thinking I'll try to build a new door. Maybe a wood frame with rigid foam insulation. Does this seem like a good approach? Any other ideas?
 
3/4" plywood with 2" foam board on the inside!
Or a 1/4 - 1/2" steel bar on the back side from top to bottom to pull and hold the bow back in.
