An RV place could advise you about heaters that would work off a marine
battery (car battery would get sucked down too fast) and a propane tank.
Or you could get a camping heater:

The really low tech solution is to bring a dog or two (been there done
that) -- their body temps are higher than ours and they radiate a lot of
heat.

And dress warmly:  I slept in the back of my truck at rides for many years,
and thermals under regular sweats or polarfleece sweats, with a woolen
watchcap (you lose a lot of heat our of your skull) and I was toasty even
with frost on my sleeping bag.
