As always, I was just hoping to get by on the cheap. ;-) It cost me about $100 to heat the garage last winter. That is keeping it in the 45-50F range. That is warm enough to work on engines and such with a sweat shirt on. If I need to paint or such, I can crank it up. I only heat an area that is 18 x 24 feet, but it is WELL insulated. I contracted my propane for this winter at $1.04 gal.. Market right now is about $1.34 and going up. -- Russ Wolfe '71 FB AT '66 FB MT '64 T34 (not running) '65 T1 (not running) russw@classicvw.org http://www.classicvw.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
