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 responded instantly to the e-mail submission of my 1997 Porsche 993. An hour later the funds were wired into my bank account and the car was picked up the very next day. Alex was very professional, did absolutely everything he said he would and the transaction was simple, clean and fast.”
“Alex caught me off guard when I called him about selling my car. He was courteous, knowledgeable, and quick. He backed up his words with a transparent transaction that was amazingly complete with solid answers, paperwork, funding, and transport arrangement. His staff was proactive, very informative, and helpful. The whole transaction, from my first phone call to my car being transported, took only one day. I would not hesitate working with Alex again.”
“Alex responded within 30 minutes to the form I submitted. We talked for about five minutes, agreed on price, and money was in my account in the next five minutes. Alex was professional, and I was comfortable with all phases of the transaction. Transport was available to pick up the car the next day, but bad weather postponed the actual pickup for a couple of days. Again, all was good for me, and I recommend Alex and his business to my friends.”
“The entire process of selling my car to Alex was quick, efficient, and easy. He and his staff were very professional and pleasant to work with. It was a great experience and I’m completely satisfied!”

“My car sale was simple, fast and efficient. Alex is enthusiastic and fair. I recommend him highly and would be happy to work with him anytime i am buying or selling a car.”
“Alex purchased my Porsche. From phone call, to money in the bank was less than 24 hours, and the car was taken away. Would use again. Fair price fast service.”
“I can’t imagine a scenario where the sales process could have gone more smoothly. Everyone I dealt with, starting with Alex and ending with the vehicle transport, was incredibly professional, efficient, and transparent. I’m very impressed with every aspect of the transaction and look forward to doing business with Alex in the future.”
“My name is Dave Osborne (aka Super Dave as most people call me). I lost my brother last year and inherited his 1985 Porsche 911 Carrera. The car needed fair amount work which I was not in the position to handle so I decided to sell it. I had an offer from a local guy but it was less than I really wanted to let it go for. I found Alex on the internet and gave him a call. He was very interested in the car and he made me an offer $3000.00 more than the offer I was given. I felt his offer was good for me and good for him so we did the deal over the phone and he had a check at my door the next day. Alex and his staff are really great people and a pleasure to do business with. I was very happy that I found Alex and sold the car to him. The transport guy showed up on the day and time we had arranged and everything went smooth as silk.
The incredible thing was we had planned the pick up for a Wednesday because I was going to be at my brothers place that day for an appraisal but he called me on Monday because he was in the area a day early so I went up and met him on Tuesday where he picked up the car. That night there was a severe wind storm and when I showed up Wednesday for the appraisal there were 3 huge limbs that came down from about 120 feet out of the cedar tree and they all landed right where the Porsche was parked. It would have been totaled. Someone was looking down on me, maybe my brother. If you have a classic car that you want to sell and get a fair price you have to call Alex. I am very happy that I found Alex and sold my brothers Porsche to him. He is very professional and a man of his word. Thank you Alex and your staff for treating me so good.”
“Very impressed with the extremely fast and professional service I received. That is very hard to find these days and I am very grateful for the wonderful service. I would recommend Alex to anyone in the market. I am sure I will be doing more business with him in the future.”
