It should start.

Might run a bit rough, but my bet is it will start. It doesn't need much heat to bring the fuel up to prime operating temp.

The fuel filter is heated, and anything in the fuel line should instantly liquify if it had gelled.

Does anyone know of any 35d that actually has refused to start outright. I've heard of some running a bit rough until they're up to operating temp, but that's not the end of the world?

My 2-cents, but If I'm wrong I will not be surprised.

Might want to consider an engine block heater. You're pushing the envelope there (engine blocks do still crack, believe it or not) The battery tender is not needed, as long as you drive it once per day for a reasonable distance. I won't hurt, but it's really not required unless you're seeing those temps for a week at a time, and only driving the car 1 or 2 miles per day.
