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.

“If you want to sell your car fast and efficiently this is the guy . He gets it done fast. I wanted to sell my Porsche and get a Corvette. Instead of having to place an ad getting and getting 100s of phone calls showing car I emailed Alex. He called me within 15 minutes.He looked at the car the very next morning…made me an offer within 30 min and paid me on the spot. Hassle free – I was able to get my Corvette 4 days later instead of having to wait for the Porsche to sell. Two thumbs up!”

“Before I decided on selling my Porsche 911 Carrera to Alex, I’ve read a lot of the testimonials on his website. What I found important was the ease of payment Alex had set-up with his customers. The other positive area was how responsive Alex and his team with regards to communication. Both of these were true. Last but not the least is how he took care of my baby (Porsche 911) when it was time tor shipping from Massachusetts to California.”

“We had 2 1966 912 Porsches that we envisioned restoring but, sadly, could not find the time. That Alex Manos provided a path to the deserved restoration was a gift for us knowing the cars would get the best treatment. Alex and his team were professional and prompt in every action they took. From the point we agreed on pricing to receipt of funds and transfer of titles was only a couple of days- that was amazing. The pick-up for transportation was within a week of closure and was done with great care. The key message in my response is that Alex has a smooth and proven process for handling these transactions and his staff follows that process deftly and with excellence.”
