Buying a 1962 Porsche 356B Roadster

For 1962, the Porsche 356B was updated with a new T-6 body. Boasting a squared-off front hood and a larger windshield and rear window, the 1962 Porsche 356B Roadster, Coupe and Cabriolet saw great popularity during the era. The 1962 Porsche 356B also featured a fuel filter that was moved from under the hood to under a flap in the right front fender. Twin engine-grilles improved cooling, while the battery was moved to the right side of the trunk compartment and space was made on the left side for an optional gas heater. Further upgrades included an air intake vent on the cowl to provide better ventilation for the passengers. The 1962 Roadster was produced during this model-year, but little more than 200 were made before it was discontinued.

1962 Porsche 356B Roadster Buyer’s Guide

Perhaps the biggest challenge to buying a 1962 Porsche 356B Roadster is actually finding one in the condition you require. Because of the limited production numbers and the amount of time that has passed since their manufacturing, the 1962 Porsche 356B Roadster is highly sought-after. You’ll want to authenticate any potential purchase by verifying the chassis and engine numbers match those of Porsche records, and you’ll want to verify the completeness of the example. These early Porsche 356 models can be quite expensive to restore, as parts and body panels can be difficult and costly to find. Buyer’s will also want to take into consideration the history of the car and whether or not it has maintenance and restoration records to backup any claims. If documentation is not available, simply have a thorough third party, pre-purchase inspection performed by a qualified Porsche mechanic. These are just a few of the Buyer’s Tips that The Beverly Hills Car Club recommends for this particular classic Porsche.
