plug it in and put a max/min thermometer in it and let it run for a few days. I would turn the thermostat up as high (warm) as it gets and see if it can maintain a temperature in the mid 50s without any huge drops/spikes.
You would also have the ventilation issues we have discussed below, but you could just fan the door daily for a few seconds.
