Daily driving a PV 544 in a snowy climate... is it possible? 444-544 1964

Hi all,

I'm relocating for work to an area that gets a lot of snow.

I daily drive a '64 544 that is pretty sound, suspension wise. (The front end has been rebuilt recently and steering is nice and tight). IPD Anti-sway bar is currently installed on the front of the car.

I currently live in a mild climate that gets a bit of rain, but certainly not snow.

I'm curious how well this car will do in snow. At bare minimum, I'm planning to get some Snow tires installed, but I wonder if there's anything else I can do, or if I should consider getting another car to drive during the winter months.

Would installing the rear anti-sway bar help any?

I'd appreciate any feedback you can offer.

Thanks!
