If you and your wife are young, in good shape, etc., it's doable. Are you talking about putting the hull on a PU bed "rack" above the bed, or actually in the bed? Even a small tin hull will weight 100#+, be bulky and hard to deal with. You on one end, wife on the other end. If you drop it or it slips, some damage will be done. Are you going to use a gas outboard, more weight, and the gas as well.
Google how to car top a tin hull and read the comments/postings. do the same for Kayaks and car topping. You will read some positive and negative comments.
I've loaded a yak into a PU bed numerous times, no where near as difficult as car topping, but it gets old after one season. I've got a trailer for my current yak, and it's just like launching/loading a full size regular boat for the most part. Much easier. GL
