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 sold them 2 Porches. They were a pleasure to deal with. Funds were in my account the next day an the cars were picked up within the week. Professional and courteous. Highly recommended.”
“Selling my 1984 Porsche Carrera Targa was a breeze, thanks to Alex Manos and his professional process. The car had been in the family for 27 years and I was on the fence about selling. After researching traditional sources like PCA Mart and Auto Trader Classic, and deciding I was a motivated seller, I reached out to Alex for an offer. He was a gentleman, very professional and we negotiated what I think was a very fair compromise between my original asking price and Alex’s original offer. Alex wired the money to my account the next day and the funds cleared before the transporter and I arranged a pickup day and time. Alex’s process made this an extremely easy and pleasant experience!”
“Was very good. They did all they could to buy my car. They gave me exactly what I wanted for it which was very nice and I was happy to sell it to them.”
“My experience was one of professionalism along with friendly communication to address any and all questions I had. The staff provided helpful advise and direction throughout the entire process. The transaction was quick and seamless. I highly recommend them if you’re considering selling a special vehicle.”
“Consummate professionals all the way. Sales negotiations, Docusigning, Bill of Sale, Wire payment transfer, Pickup……….everything. If all business was conducted like AlexManos, it would be a better world.”
“I sold Alex my 1997 993 twin turbo Porsche in Feb. 2022. He quoted me a price over the phone which I thought was fair. We agreed, and I was surprised how quick and efficient they were. We spoke on Saturday, the wired money was in my account Monday morning, and I then sent him the title. The car was picked up by mid-day Monday. Professional, efficient, and easy to deal with – that was my experience with Alex Manos.”
“Alex just bought my classic Porsche. And transaction was as smooth as all the other reviews stated, and believe me I know, because I’ve attempted to sale this car twice over the past 3 years and backed out because the buyer was trying to convince me my car had very little value. Alex and his crew were very professional and fair, I had my money deposited in my account before they picked up the vehicle. If you’re selling a classic car, check out Alex, Thanks Alex…..”
“Extremely professional. Sell my Porsche to Alex was the smoother transaction I’ve ever had.”
“It was pleasure doing business with Alex. I had a really old Porsche and in a bad condition, and Alex gave me an offer and once I accepted he sent a driver to pick it up and the process was fast. Trustworthy man with a nice staff.”
“Alex was outstanding. I emailed him pictures of the five cars I wanted to sell on 01/02/2022, Sunday. Within one hour my phone rang and the negations began. One car at a time, carefully we discussed each in detail while he reviewed the extensive array of photos of each vehicle. The entire process was painless. He is a fair person to deal with and I will sell the remaining cars left in my collection. The thought of selling one at a time to multiple buyers would have been painful. The overall administrative process was carried out just as he outlined. The money was wired and in my account by 6am the following morning. The cars were on a carrier by Friday 01/07/2022 to their new home. Alex is good at what he does and I highly recommend.”
