I drain the radiator when frost is expected - that's about it.
Keeping warm in an unheated convertible is a challenge. Numerous thin layers are better than one thick one. Merino wool long johns are a good start; M&S used to sell them 'under the counter'. Most body heat is lost through your head, but fingers will be the first to feel it (or rather, not feel anything) so good headgear and gloves are essential. I have been known to stuff a hot water bottle up my jumper. There are great things to be found in army surplus stores. In real winter you have probably got almost enough clothing on if you can barely walk to / get into the car. Finally resist the temptation to keep warm with hot drinks...
