  • Porsche’s popular 356 Roadster was introduced for the 1960 model year as a replacement for the one-year-only Convertible D, the Speedster’s more civilized successor. The new T5 Roadster brought several marked changes in appearance: the front fenders and headlamps were raised, as were both the front and rear bumpers to better deal with urban parking. New vertical bumper guards also helped in that respect. Brake-cooling intakes were added to the nose below the front bumper, helping assist the updated cast-aluminum Alfin brake drums with iron liners.

    The new Roadster shared many of the comfort attributes of the Convertible D (and more expensive Cabriolets), including roll-up windows, adjustable seats, and a well-constructed convertible top with a tan-painted frame and wraparound plastic rear window. For those with competition in mind, the windshield could be removed fairly easily, a boon given Roadsters, like the Speedster and Convertible D before them, remained popular in amateur sports car racing worldwide. Unsurprisingly, the model attracted celebrities like Steve McQueen and Janis Joplin and remains a highly desirable variant of the vaunted 356 to this day.

    The fabulous 1961 Porsche 356 B T5 1600 Roadster featured here is finished in gorgeous Ruby Red over a Tan leather interior with a Beige folding convertible top. Featuring an older, yet still well-presenting restoration and service records dating from the 1960s to present, this exceptional 356 Roadster will be a sensational addition to any Porsche collection. We are proud to offer this numbers-matching, show-quality Porsche Roadster to the most demanding collector, investor, or enthusiast who desires to own one of the very best!

    Financing

    Finance rates as low as 8.9%.


    We know that classic car financing can pose a unique challenge. Although a vintage or exotic car can be an excellent investment, some financial institutions attempt to apply standard “used car” rules for financing a classic car, which in many cases can make loan approval difficult.


    We work closely with many banking institutions that understand and recognize the collector value of classic cars and view them as an investment, which allows us to help you get the financing you need so that you can have the car you have dreamed of.


    Terms available up to 144 Months


    If you have any questions, feel free to contact us, (314)291-7000 or credit@schmitt.com


    * Rates vary depending on year of car, length of term and credit score.
