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.

“In this day and age to trust anyone over the Internet, its a scary experience. I would say from seeing his website, other testimonials, and the way he personally calls you, will help you get over that fear. He also deposited the money in my bank account first before my car went anywhere. He always was accessible via phone or text. And once I worked with his help, they were fantastic as well. I will call the entire experience a win-win situation for both parties.”

“Alex Manos. The man, the myth, the legend. Yes, Alex and his business are that good. Reviewing our entire transaction together, I am willing to attest, Alex lives up to the testimonials I read online before I decided to sell him my 993. He is a pleasure to communicate with. He is reachable at all hours of a given day, whatever day it is. He and his team are professionals, and Alex does as he says; he delivers as promised. I highly recommend him, if you are looking to sell your car, and, especially, if you are looking for a near frictionless experience.”
