I'm hoping to paint my brother's '88 Celica over winter break, but the problem is that my garage that I'd paint the car in is very cold. It's not insulated and is composed of concrete walls and a concrete floor with a wooden framed roof. For the most part, the garage is enclosed, although the garage door doesn't seal completely near the top. And the garage is a two-car garage, shown below.
Basically, I'm trying to find a good, efficient way to heat the garage for a day so that I can spray the car. It needs to be fairly inexpensive too, because I'm broke.  Anyone have any ideas?

My bros and I put together this contraption with a couple pieces of 2x4's and we tied up a bunch of lights to it. Big high wattage bulbs. Then we positioned it and the lights however we needed and painted away. Made for some pretty good results... ;]
