After the Porsche 356 B was updated to the new T6 bodies, one of the cars that received some of the most significant changes with the re-design was the T6 Notchback Coupe. Instead of being a Cabriolet with a welded Hardtop, the roof was now made as a structural part of the rest of the body and the windshield used came from the Coupe, not the Cabriolet. After a short production run of T5 Notchback Coupes in 1961, and despite its relatively weak sales, Porsche decided to continue production of the Notchback Coupe  with the updated 356 B T6 changes during the end of 1961. After a short run of 600 cars in 1961 (1962 models), and an even shorter run of 99 cars in 1962, the Porsche 356 B T6 Notchback Coupe was discontinued in 1962.
