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.

1987 Porsche Carrera Targa

Kissimmee, FL

“My experience with Alex and his team was great. They are very courteous and professional. Despite some delay in picking up the 1987 Carrera Targa due to the transporter truck’s mechanical problems, the cross country (from Florida to California) transaction was pleasant. It might sound strange to say that the most difficult part of this transaction for me who has pre-existing back pain is bending/twisting the body to take pictures of the interior of a small sport car. I would strongly recommend Alex if you want to sell/buy a classic car!”

“The response from Alex Manos was outstanding. On initial communication, conversation was clear and concise. My comfort level was quickly established. I wondered hope payment for Porsche would be made with me in Maryland and Alex in California. Alex explained process and in minutes full payment was transferred to my bank with paperwork to justify actions. His office staff coordinated shipment of Porsche and within 24 hours transporter date/time pickup was finalized. Would I sell another vehicle to Alex? ABSOLUTELY!”
