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.

“Alex Manos is a class act. It was pleasure to deal with him and his team. He made the sale and collection of the vehicle simple and painless. I recommend him without hesitation.”
“My experience with Alex Manos was simply exceptional. Alex is professional, courteous, and very respectful in the manner he does business. He earned my trust and confidence and handled the transaction as efficiently as possible. I would not hesitate to do business with Alex Manos and again or refer him to a friend.”
“My husband was the original owner of a 1996 Porsche 911 Cabriolet that he truly treasured. I say ‘was’ because unfortunately, he has back problems that made it difficult for him to enter and exit the vehicle, so it was decided it was time to sell. He did his research and was very impressed. He called Alex, the owner, who promptly scheduled an appointment to have someone come out to see the car. David arrived with a flatbed in case we were able to make a deal. I cannot say enough wonderful things about David. He is super personable, polite, kind, caring, and respectful. He did it all. He took photos of the car and went over every detail with Alex on the phone. When it came time for the offer, we were grateful that we were able to come to an agreement on a fair price. Alex was a pleasure to work with. He understood how difficult it was for us to part with a car that meant so much, and the entire process could not have gone any smoother. Everything was handled in a way that truly honored both the car and the memories attached to it. True to his word, the money was wired into our account right then on the spot. In closing, if you are looking to sell or buy a classic car, we highly recommend not looking elsewhere. This company is truly top notch.”
“Very organized and efficient process. Nothing bad to say. Made me feel extremely comfortable the way everything was handled. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to sell a high end classic car.”
“Sold an 89 Porsche 911 to Alex. Very easy transaction. His team was very easy to work with.”
“I sold a classic vehicle and the service went well transaction went well I would love to do business with you again.”
“Sold my Porsche 911sc 1979 to Alex it was a smooth deal super professional people to deal with it was a quick and satisfactory deal for me and had no issues . Definitely would deal deal with Alex again no problems.”
“I finally recently realized that my pride and joy, a beautiful German that I’ve owned for 35 years had to go. I received what was a modest offer from the dealer that I use in the Chicago area and was torn as to take the offer or not. My wife quickly got online and started researching exotic car, buyers and Alex’s name popped up right away. Thinking that this wouldn’t go very far. I gave a quick call to his office and virtually immediately he called back. He needed a little bit of information which I gave him and he immediately made me an offer that was significantly higher than the dealer. I actually sort of lost my breath for a second! I’m not kidding. Before I could even answer yes he said if I answer yes, right now he would up the offer by 20%! I started laughing out loud and said yes the whole transaction couldn’t have taken more than 30 seconds! The money came in a wire transfer that same day, he arranged for the pick up of the car and the transfer out to California. it all happened so fast it felt like my old girlfriend just jumped up and left me! However, it was a really excellent experience 5+ stars the whole way no drawbacks at all that I can think of. I don’t know if I would sell her again, but if I did, I would call him first for sure. Bing bang boom that should be his nickname! Anyways, thanks again, Alex.”
“Great team to work with. Money was wired to me within minutes of a verbal agreement and the car was picked up a week later at my convenience. Support staff on the paperwork and scheduling were spot on as well. I would readily do business with Alex and his team again.”
“After we agreed the price, I got money in bank by a wire within 24 hours, so quick. He didn’t need to inspect the car, bought AS IS condition. Good experience with Alex.”
