I once did a clutch job on the old Duster in a near blizzard right in my driveway. I HAD to drive the car the next morning and the clutch was slipping badly, so I just did it. I raised the car and put a couple of layers of cardboard under it to lay down on and built a windbreak out of cardboard to keep the snow from blowing over me. I had a big set of coveralls that allowed me to wear a heavy coat under it and put on my long johns. I kept my trouble light on my chest to warm my hands and did the R&R of the clutch in record time. It worked fine and I got to work on time. Wasn't much fun at the time though.

I did lose a couple of sockets until the spring thaw.

I have a couple of those electric radiant heaters that I use in my garage. They really help keep you warm if you are in a particular position for awhile but don't do much if you are moving around. They didn't cost much at Costco and the only disadvantage with them is that they get in the way and you have to be careful not to kick them over. I believe they would work OK outside unless it was raining or snowing. A windbreak would really help. A lot of times you can get large cardboard containers, like from refigerators for nothing. It might be a no-cost solution for you.
