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 owned a 1991 Porsche 964 Cabriolet. It took me a while to decide it was time to sell it. I had past the point in my life when I could enjoy it fully. Alex purchased the car. It was an amazing experience. He promptly sent me an offer for the car, sight-unseen. The offer was more than fair. As soon as I excepted the offer, he wired the money within minutes. A few minutes after that I was contacted to arrange shipment for the car. The staff working with title and moving were extremely professional. I made errors while signing the title over. They helped correct that very quickly. It made parting with such an iconic car that I’ve enjoyed so much as painless as possible. Thank you Alex and team.”
