Are you looking to keep the car warm, or just make it tolerable for you to work in there? I think an electric heater is probably the safest and least invasive thing, but yeah, it will cost to run it. But if you can't vent the stove, and kerosene stinks I'm gonna say electric. We used to have this little ceramic heater. It was about 8 inches square. You could heat a bedroom with that sucker. I also have a little propane camping heater. It looks almost like an audio speaker, but the cone part is flat on the wide end. You just fasten a small bottle of propane to it, and light the front of it. It doesn't smell too bad, but you would probably want a little ventilation. We had a major snowstorm a couple years back, and our power went out. We held out for about six hours, then started to freeze. So we bought the propane camping heater as a last resort. We used it right in our damn living room for a couple hours. We just opened a window a crack. Worst case scenario is that you are cold for a couple months, I guess. Best of luck though.  |
