Default fridge, take 3 and the dumb things POs do

after visiting 3 stores and obsessively-compulsively web searching, I
think I found a fridge that SWMBO would love

http://products.geappliances.com/App...= GEA&TABID=2

then I went home thinking "gee, all I have to do is take her to the
store, get her to OK it, and then I can have a shiny new fridge that's
quiet, cools well, and she won't complain about it."

WRONG...

PO of house hung a kitchen cabinet above the fridge, tight to the
ceiling, and there's only 66.5" from floor to bottom of cabinet.

DAMN YOU PREVIOUS OWNER

*her* complaint about old fridge was size; I estimate it about 18 ft^3,
can't seem to find a new one any bigger that's not also taller...!

guess I need to get an OK to rip down cabinet, but then what to do for
storage space...? full kitchen remodel or even just a redoor is not in
budget (much as I would *love* to make my own custom doors; I kinda hate
the ones that are in there) do you think if I took a door to a good
kitchen place that they might be able to sell me a cabinet to match but
shorter? I believe these cabinets were installed by owner before last
owner, so at least 20 years ago...
