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.

“If you have a collectible auto to sell I highly recommend Alex Manos. He and his staff did everything they said they were going to do in a timely and professional manner. I actually felt good about the sale knowing that my collectable will be restored to perfection and sold to someone that will appreciate it. The transport driver told me that he transports vehicles for many dealers and told me that I picked the best. “Your car will be restored to perfection”. I have already referred two people to Mr. Manos.”

“I can’t believe how easy it was… I thought at first it might be a scam – everything was almost “too easy”. Alex and his team were professional the entire way. Alex made me feel at ease and worked at my pace. Payment was made the next day to my lien holder – The transport company that came to pick up my car was easy to deal with and worked around my schedule. Selling my car was very easy and I would do business with Alex again!”

“I contacted Alex via his website and he called me back literally within three minutes.
After a little friendly haggling we settled on a price, the money was in my account the next business day, and the car was gone the following weekend. I was sad to see her go, but dealing with Alex and his team was the easiest auto transaction I have ever been a part of. I could not recommend Alex highly enough.”

“Gave me a great price for my 1974 911 Targa. Funds were immediately wired and the car was picked up within a week. Horacio did a great job backing up the flatbed trailer through a narrow space, completing the paperwork and driving off.”

I only needed to send a couple of pictures and give my honest evaluation of the the mechanicals and the funds were wired to my account within two hours. A true gentleman!”

“My experience selling my Porsche was quick and easy. Alex and his team made the whole transaction smooth. I appreciated the communication especially when the pick up and shipping had a few pauses. I live in Lake Tahoe, Nevada and it snowed the day of scheduled pick up. The car was to be picked up at 12 noon and because of a snow storm the pick up occurred at 9 pm. Bottom line , we got it done without incident! I highly recommend Alex if you are considering selling your classic car.”

“I’ll be honest… I had no idea what to expect trying to sell my beloved Porsche to someone on the other side of the country site on scene with a wire transfer. However it was easily one of the best, seamless, and least stressful car transactions I’ve ever had! And I buy a lot of cars! Alex and his entire team is super professional and they are top notch. he wired me the money within a day even though it was the weekend and he had a shipping company at my door the following day to pick up the car. It was incredible… I plan on staying in touch and doing more business with him and his entire team.”
