My boy's TR-7 sits outside all winter with nothing more than water and 
water wetter in the radiator, and a trouble light under the hood.  I told him 
several times that that light may not keep his radiator and block from 
freezing, especially if the bulb burns out.  It does get cold in the mountains of 
north central Pennsylvania.

If you can find an older heating pad without a timer on it, you could place 
it on the top of the engine and plug it in.  I use three of them to warm 
small tents for outdoor cats.  An electric blanket should also work.</HTML>
