A lift-roof cover (10) for a light truck open load bed (12), comprising a lift- roof structure (15) pivotally attached about a lateral axis A-A to the upper edge (44) of the cover forward wall (18), the forward wall (18) being fixedly mounted to the load bed (12) so that, alternately, secure weatherproof enclosure of the load bed (12) may be provided with the lift-roof structure (15) in a lowered position, or the lift-roof structure (15) may be raised at the rear about the lateral axis A-A, providing improved access to the load bed (12). A preferred embodiment incorporates the use of compression struts (74, 76) to provide lift assist in raising the lift-roof structure (15) and accommodates the application of flexible curtains (146) to provide full enclosure with the lift-roof structure (15) in a raised position, while maintaining commonality with methods of manufacture, handling, shipping and storage employed for high volume production load bed covers of the prior art.
