Unhappy Rear End Clunk

Ok guys, last night I was leaving my buddies house in my '83 944 and as I drove over some railroad tracks I heard a really loud clunking noise. Like something fell off my car. So I quickly pull into a parking lot and go to the back of the car thinking I will find my cv shafts (replaced in the winter) dangling. I look around underneath but couldn't see anything obvious. Didn't help that it was dark. So I get back in the car and go back and drive over the tracks again to listen but I don't hear anything. So I just go home and forget about it. Well today, I didn't drive my car at all till around 8PM and I put the car in reverse to back down the street and I hear a terrible sound in the rear again like I ran something over. I stop again and get out and look. I see nothing again. So, I decide to start driving again because I was late to pick my buddy up so I had to take my car. Well as I was driving through town I was just cruising along with the music off to listen for clunks and again I hear it, but this time I was just cruising, not going over any bumps. It was in third gear. It wasn't as loud as the other two times. So I baby it home and now it sits till the morning.

What do you guys think it is?
