This 1961 Porsche 356 B Cabriolet represents a carefully preserved and sympathetically refurbished example of one of Porsche’s most enduring open-top designs. Finished in its correct Signal Red over a black interior, the car reflects a balance of originality, thoughtful restoration, and long-term stewardship that defines the most desirable examples of the 356 lineage.

Under prior ownership, the car was maintained by its original owner until 2013, providing a strong foundation for its continued preservation. A cosmetic refurbishment was later completed, including media-blasting prior to paint, ensuring proper surface preparation while retaining the integrity of the body. Brightwork was re-chromed as necessary, complementing the car’s clean presentation without appearing over-restored.

Power is supplied by a rebuilt 1600cc Super 90 flat four-cylinder engine equipped with twin Solex carburetors and Knecht air cleaners, paired with a four-speed manual transmission. The drivetrain delivers the engaging, lightweight driving character for which the 356 is known, while rebuilt VDO instrumentation—including a 6,000 RPM tachometer—maintains period accuracy within the cabin.

Inside, the black interior is accented by salt-and-pepper square weave carpeting, a Blaupunkt radio, and factory-correct details throughout. Equipment such as the boot cover, luggage rack, and factory-style accessories further enhance usability and authenticity. The car is accompanied by a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity and reference books, reinforcing its documented provenance.

Recognized for its quality of presentation, this 356 B Cabriolet was awarded Best in Class at the Ironstone Concours d’Elegance. It was presented at Mecum Kissimmee 2026, where it crossed the block on Friday, January 16th, standing as a refined example of Porsche’s early open-air motoring heritage.
