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 contacted Alex on his website one afternoon to see if he was interested I purchasing my 1967 Jaguar 4.2 E-Type 2+2. I uploaded my information including a couple of pictures of the car. I was contacted, via phone, from Alex the following morning and we discussed the basics. He made an appointment to send out one of his appraisers to my place. The gentleman that showed up was awesome. He seen nearly an hour looking over the vehicle and then put me in touch directly with Alex. Alex made an offer on the car that was very reasonable and exactly where I was estimating it would be. I accepted the offer and within minutes I was signing the papers and he transferred the funds into my account that day. We then made an appointment to have them pick up the car and that went as smooth as silk.”
