200 pounds? seriously? I must be stronger than i thought I used to take mine off by myself all the time by just standing up in the bed of the truck and walking off the tailgate with the shell on my shoulders. I would have killed for a carport/garage and the pulley system tv rigged up though.

i think the canopy off my 79 is about 150-200 pounds, it takes me and a friend to get it on and off.
