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.

“My experience selling my 1968 Porsche was excellent in every way. It was less than a half hour between the time I first logged on the site and the Bill of Sale was in my hand at a price which was significantly higher than what I was able to get locally. I hated to see the car go but it was time for it to find a new home. The only semi-glitch was a delay in the pick up at my home due to circumstances beyond their control. The driver was friendly and efficient. He knew what he was doing.”

“This was the easiest and fairest process I have ever done, with Alex on the west coast and me on the east coast. Alex was fair, responsive and true to his word. Once an agreement was made we conducted business with a “virtual” handshake. It’s refreshing to see there are still people conducting business honestly, fairly and with great communication. I would recommend anyone looking to sell their classic car(s) to contact Alex.”

“I just sold my 1985 Porsche Carrera to Alex. The process was so quick and effortless that my head is still spinning. I had finally decided to sell my beloved Porsche and got it detailed to get it ready for sale. I took a few pictures of the car in my driveway and went to Alex’s website that I had found previously when I was doing a survey of older Porsche prices. I filled in the Tell Us About Your Classic form, attached the pictures and clicked Contact. Literally within 5 minutes Alex called me to talk about buying the car. He asked some questions about me and the car and offered to buy it. We then agreed on a price. Documents were emailed and he electronically deposited the money directly into my bank account. Less than 24 hours later, a flatbed pulled up in front of my house and my Porsche was on its way to a new home. I can’t imagine how the process could have been any easier.”

I highly recommend that you reach out to Alex if you’re thinking about giving your classic car another home away from home.”

“I had been wanting to sell my Porsche for a while but had been putting it off. I’ve sold several cars on my own in the past, but each time it seemed to get harder and harder to do so, and with a high-end car I surely didn’t want the problems associated with advertising, dealing with browsers and low-ballers, and securing the funds before I let it go. I finally contacted Alex Manos, but before I did, I researched his company and carefully went through posted reviews of his company. He got back to me right away and after a couple of days of back-and-forth we agreed on a price. I had the funds in my account within hours. The process could not have gone smoother, and Alex was a professional the entire time. If you are looking to sell, I’d recommend giving him a call.”
