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.

“My experience with Alex Manos started out a very sad day when my oldest son passed away. In my yard my Son left me a 1990 Porsche 964 Carrera 4 Cabriolet. See, I wouldn’t even have known that if I didn’t get online and find Alex Manos looking for info on the car. I called his company and spoke to him about what happened and what my Son had left me and the fact that I lived in the top of the Mountain’s in Washington and there was no where near to get info. You would think at that time he would have thought I got a live one on the hook, but it was the exact opposite he told me he was really sorry about what happened to my son and that I had a treasure there. He told me that I should think about what my plans for the car were and that if I ever decided to sell it give him the opportunity to bid on the car, that was it I didn’t hear from Alex again for four months. After four months went by I got an email from Alex asking if I had thought about our conversation and wondered if I would entertain a bid on my Porsche to which I replied maybe. Alex asked me to send him a couple better pictures (no snow up to the roof of the car ) so I took pictures of the outside and the inside and sent them. In the mean time I got online and explored what I had only to find out that I had a very unique car, only a few made of this type Porsche, I searched out the internet to find out what the value was so I would not screw myself. When I got the email from Alex with the offer I was caught by surprise he had the value down to within dollars of what the value was. I called him and said I would like to sell him the car and he said okay I am going to send you a couple of papers about the title and agreements and then he asked me what bank I used and I told him the details and that guy had the money in my account by the next day and called and said is that fast enough! He had his crew get all the pickup info and called and said when will you have time to meet my people to pick the Porsche up. The reason I had to leave such a long review is because my Wife raised Her voice at me and said you leave that man a nice review because he was the only thing that has gone right since our son passed. Thank you for what should seem to be a tough situation into a seamless transfer of my Porsche.”
