Nice picture. It's got to be cold where you are located. What have you got planned for her once it warms up?

My 944 is my winter beater

My 944 is my winter beater. I've been using my 1984 944 for my winter transportation since 2000. Just replaced my Dunlops... I'm ready to go.

My exterior driver side door handle just broke tonight. The part you pull with your fingers just snapped in half. Anyone got a good 1984 944 drivers door handle for sale? :(

I drove mine to work today and then they closed. We only had 8 inches and some wind. It's about 25 miles each way, and it was slowed by traffic in front of me.

Nope nothing out of the ordinary holding it on. Should come off unless someone has had it apart before. It just slips together like a Winters quickchange sidebell.

Mine didn't take that much to get apart. I'll go out and look at my old one to remind myself if there is something else holding it on. Be back in a flash.

Sounds like the front tires may be out of balance, or you might have a rotor with too much run-out. I had this on my 84. I replaced the front rotors, $59, and it went away.
