Early '12, step-side. I can't tell if it is an earliest with two-piece firewall, or middle early one-piece firewall. Then I remembered, I can click on the photo and zoom in on a clearer image. Still not sure, but the speedometer appears too high for a two-piece firewall? Or maybe that is an added clock?
Rear door opens to the front (suicide direction) if that makes a difference? I know that rear door changed directions and handle types a few times during the '12 model year.
I may yet get used to this new format!

Interesting way to carry the spare tires. Looks like they must have a board across the flats of the rear fenders and the tires tied to it.

Re: Old Photo - Brass Era Auto Camping Olympic Mountains, Washington
And thank you John W! Sadly, we (this forum) have lost a few of the best ones the past two years. I hope, with the new year, and the new format, maybe we can get a few of them to come back. I think studying the old photos and advertising is important to the hobby. Dan Treace is posting some again. I do hope that is a good sign. This is a huge hobby, and a passion for so many of us. There is room for various specialties, eras, and areas of interest. There is no good reason we should not be able to all get along and appreciate all of them here in one of the best sites on the web.
