Greg, that's nice.
Is it a humidor. If so we need pics of the inside.

It is not a humidor yet...it is still in the icebox stage.  I'm in the process of moving....then I am going to tackle this project.

The enamel coating should clean up easily and the addition of shelves or drawers would probably suffice for cedar infusion. The galvanized tin ice box part I would probably line with plywood or the afore mentioned cedar. You'd have a hard time getting veneer to stick, I'd cut everything for a tight fit and a few dabs of silicone should keep everything in place.

Awesome fridge.  FYI you can buy 4 X 8 sheets of plywood in various thicknesses in Spanish Cedar.  It's not cheap, but less expensive than solid wood, and is a big time saver.  It won't regulate humidity though as well as solid stock, but that probably won't be an issue in a fridge like that.  A bigger problem will be making sure you get some air exchange on a regular basis to avoid mold.

 GOOD LUCK!
