Weight of AS Shell - Need to Know

Does anyone out there have any idea what a bare naked shell might weigh in at?

I have a 56 Caravanner that is completely naked with the exception of the windows. Getting ready to pull the shell off and would like to work up some type of guesstimate to see if my beams will hold it.

Thanks...

PS: I'm guessing around 900#

I'd "guesstimated" that my 1951 21 ft Flying Cloud Shell weighed something around 400#'s . . .
