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.

“Before I decided on selling my Porsche 911 Carrera to Alex, I’ve read a lot of the testimonials on his website. What I found important was the ease of payment Alex had set-up with his customers. The other positive area was how responsive Alex and his team with regards to communication. Both of these were true. Last but not the least is how he took care of my baby (Porsche 911) when it was time tor shipping from Massachusetts to California.”
“I called Alex to sell my Porsche and left a voicemail. He called me back very promptly. He gave me very easy to follow instructions on the things he needed in order to place a value on the vehicle. Once that was done, he gave me a very reasonable offer.”
“We had 2 1966 912 Porsches that we envisioned restoring but, sadly, could not find the time. That Alex Manos provided a path to the deserved restoration was a gift for us knowing the cars would get the best treatment. Alex and his team were professional and prompt in every action they took. From the point we agreed on pricing to receipt of funds and transfer of titles was only a couple of days- that was amazing. The pick-up for transportation was within a week of closure and was done with great care. The key message in my response is that Alex has a smooth and proven process for handling these transactions and his staff follows that process deftly and with excellence.”
“Everyone was very polite and knowledgeable about the selling process. Thank you to Abraham and Giovanni with walking me through step by step. I will definitely do business with Alex Manos again.”
“Really appreciate Valarie’s help, she is very kind and professional.”
“I contacted Alex on his website one afternoon to see if he was interested I purchasing my 1967 Jaguar 4.2 E-Type 2+2. I uploaded my information including a couple of pictures of the car. I was contacted, via phone, from Alex the following morning and we discussed the basics. He made an appointment to send out one of his appraisers to my place. The gentleman that showed up was awesome. He seen nearly an hour looking over the vehicle and then put me in touch directly with Alex. Alex made an offer on the car that was very reasonable and exactly where I was estimating it would be. I accepted the offer and within minutes I was signing the papers and he transferred the funds into my account that day. We then made an appointment to have them pick up the car and that went as smooth as silk.”
“Alex and his crew were wonderful to work with. We sold our 1986 Porsche to him. The transaction was easy. Everything he said, he did.!!! From transferring money to picking up the car! Great Guys!! Five Stars!!”
“Very smooth transaction. We agreed a price and I was paid almost immediately. If I had another vehicle I would try to sell it Alex too.”
“It was a pleasure doing business with Alex. It is always intimidating selling anything without the direct face-to-face contact. However, Alex made the whole process feel comfortable and provided the confidence we needed to proceed. Everybody we dealt with was very professional and helpful.”
“It was so fast and easy it almost seemed too good to be true! Overall a good experience, thank you.”
