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 had been thinking of selling my 1991 Porsche 964 C4 for a while. And when I decided to go ahead the website (www.alexmanos.com), it was very straightforward and provided a quick connection with Alex. He called me and we discussed the Porsche, and the sale was agreed upon in a very short time. He was very knowledgeable about the marketplace, and we agreed on the sale terms, the steps required, and a schedule to complete the entire process. The whole experience was great, his support staff was excellent, and I would recommend him to anyone interested in selling, or buying a classic car. Thanks Alex, it was a pleasure.”

“What a complete pleasure it was to work with Alex! Once we settled on a price, the money was in my account, literally within minutes! The price, by the way, was initially not what I was looking for, but after about a 10-minute negotiation, we came to an agreement and poof, it was done. Professionally, amicably, and efficiently. What a fantastic way to do business. I could only HOPE that all of my business transactions will be as smooth as this experience. Alex, you’ve made what could have been a very traumatic ordeal into one of the most satisfying events. Thanks for all you do!”

“This is the first time I have sold a car of this type (Porsche). Having no comparable prior experience, I was surprised that everything was handled so quickly and professionally. But the biggest “plus” for me was finding out the company purchasing the vehicle — I have seen many ads for cars they are offering and I instantly knew that while my advancing years no longer made my dear Porsche the perfect car, “she” would undoubtedly be well-sold to a knowledgeable enthusiast who would enjoy and honor the vehicle. I was very pleased — and as the sale proceeded, everything was handled so well and precisely that all of the process was truly painless. I would recommend Alex and his team without reservation!”

“My son found the website, and I called first thing Monday morning. Alex was very courteous and asked me to email pictures of my 911 Porsche Targa T. Alex also sent me a text thanking me for my phone call. Within an hour Alex was in touch with a generous offer for my car. I agreed and the money was wired instantly to my checking account. I heard from the truck driver within 24 hours to set up a pickup time. My car was picked up Friday morning. The driver was very thorough and made the transfer very easy. He understood how emotional this was for me and my family, since this was my husband’s pride and joy. I would highly recommend Alex and everyone associated with him. Thank you so much.”
