Selling Your 1961 Porsche 356 B Roadster?
Let’s Talk About This Classic 356!
During the 1960 production year, the Porsche 356B Roadster would effectively replace the Convertible D model that was offered only in 1959. For 1961, only 812 models of the 1961 Porsche 356B Roadster would be produced before the market’s love for open-top driving would fade. Sales for soft-top versions of the Porsche 356 would decline in the early 1960s.
Today, however, these early soft-top models are some of the most desired by buyers thanks to its classic design and sporty performance. If you’re the owner of a 1961 Porsche 356B Roadster, or any open-top 356, you likely understand this appeal.

356 B Buyer’s Guide
When selling your Roadster you may find that some uneducated buyers do not understand the difference between the Roadster and the Cabriolet that was part of the line at the same time.
The best way to explain the difference is that the Roadster featured a removable windscreen, while the Cabriolet was actually a soft-top version of the Coupe, which featured a full-size windshield with body-matching color surrounding it. Manufactured until 1962, the Roadster can be either a T-5 or T-6 body type, with the T-6 being fairly rare.

“I found AlexManos.com online and made contact with him about selling my 912 Porsche, which he responded to immediately. After sending pictures to him on line, he said he would call me shortly, which he did, and he gave me an offer. We negotiated back and forth and settled on a price which we both felt was fair…after all arrangements were made, money was transferred to my account, and pick up for my vehicle was all handled on their end. I was totally satisfied with our deal, and would recommend Alex to anyone..very professional.”
“Sold my 1982 Porsche 911sc to Alex Manos. Was a little hesitant to sell at first but feel good about the transaction and overall process. Felt I received a fair price for the car. I may have been able to receive a little more money had I sold it myself, but given the advertisement cost, coupled with having to deal with potential buyers this was the best solution for me. I give the overall experience an A+.”
“From start to finish excellent customer service. From the assistant that picked up my car to Alex himself they were so nice and professional. They made a hard decision to part with my car easier for me. I highly recommend Alex Manos.”
“Alex and team were very professional and courteous throughout the process of buying and transporting my 91 Porsche 964 Cabriolet.”
“I recently sold a 1970 Porsche 911 to Alex, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the entire process. From the very first phone call, Alex was straightforward, knowledgeable, and made the transaction incredibly seamless. He was great to talk to and stayed true to his word every step of the way. The funds were transferred quickly, and his team efficiently handled the title transfer and transportation logistics. Working with Alex was a pleasure, and I highly recommend him and his team for anyone looking for a smooth and professional experience.”
“Great experience Alex and his associate David are very courteous and professional it was a pleasure doing business with them.”
“5 minutes after speaking with Alex we were able to figure out a number we both were happy with hes a great guy, knowledgeable about cars and definitely easy to work with if more buyers and were like him the car market would be alot better thanks Alex!”
“After owning the 1991 911-964 Targa for 29 years it was a hard decision of when and whether to sell it. But reason prevailed and a few Porsche dealers were contacted, these connections were not very positive. But once Alex was contacted and information and photos exchanged, the process proceeded in 5th gear! The price was negotiated and the deal was agreed to and signed. A check was deposited within 24 hours and 2 days later a truck with trailer came, the 911 was driven onto the the trailer and the 911 was history for us. Bottom line as painful as it was to loose my beautiful Targa after all those years, it was the right thing to do, at the right time, and the process of negotiating, selling, bringing the car out the garage and telling it goodby, was extremely smooth, but painful. Alex has a process that is to be envied and copied.”
“Alex and I negotiated the sell of my vehicle and I received payment shortly thereafter. My vehicle was picked up the next day.”
“Communication was extremely efficient. All my questions and concerns were answered in a timely manner.”
