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.

“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!”
“The car transaction went very smoothly and quickly. Alex was very professional and personable as he and I went through the purchase and selling of my ‘67 Porsche. No doubt I would deal and also recommend Alex as a buyer. Thanks Alex! Hope we cross path again someday.”
“Excellent. Honest. Straightforward. Convenient. Very quick response. Did exactly as he said he would and as expected. Very coordinated team. I was paid directly and quickly. No bull, no surprises.”
“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.”
“Fast, professional, efficient, and helpful.”
“Alex was personable and professional. Letting go of a project that you’ve owned for 49 years is not easy. My wife and I honey-mooned and cruised the Midwest in this car. Part of the family. Needs a younger owner who will treat her right. Allison treated us very well. Very safe transporter, Vlad. Our thanks for soothing transition.”
“Great experience in dealing with Alex Manos and his staff in selling my 1983 PORSCHE 911 SC TARGA. Alex the transaction promptly and professionaly. I would highly re commend his company. Sincerely, Don.”
“I was so sad as my Porsche speedster replica pulled out of my driveway and into the truck. That being said, when I finally decided to sell I should have contacted Alex and his team first. I went the Ebay route and also tried to sell it locally, what a waste of time and energy! After people tried to scam me on the internet and people not showing up for scheduled test drives – I made the call. Alex made a fair offer and after I accepted, everything happened so fast I was amazed. Money was wire transferred into my account in less than 2 hours and the car was picked at 9 am the next morning. Thank you for everything!”
“Very professional, fair price, quick response, sent check via FedEx, arranged pick up of car. Very good service.”
“It was a very professional experience. Called one day, check received the next day, car picked up within a few days. Quick and efficient. All people associated were professional and courteous. I would recommend!”
