You may want to try Foam with wood edges …

I was thinking of something similar. I think I might try the foam with wooden edges, but also sandwich the foam between two pieces of 1/4 ply with the outer piece having about an inch overlap all the way around. Then just attach some weather stripping to the inside of that for a seal.

I've got one wall cut out. It's not glued up yet, I just wanted to see what it looked like.
