good, but the processing/noise reduction is a little strong to me

Oh come on! You can't post a pic like this with no explanation at all! A horseless carriage with a tiller? The engine is probably in the back under the seat. Old fashioned tools on the walls, and what looks like a real wagon wheel to be repaired. This is a story just begging to be told!
Maybe it is just my monitor, but the picture is so dark that a lot of detail is lost. The shot looks slightly OOF, and there are two well-lit areas that are likely to become problematic if you lighten the shot much.

Nice shot. There is no way you're not going to be reflected in those headlamps, but you've blended with the background so you're not visible. Not sure I've ever seen an Overland. Looks like an oldie.

Nice blue jeans! Are you cheating by standing inside the chain? This is a great old car or truck, and shooting indoors with all sorts of overhead lighting (can you say hot spots to go - no matter where you stand?) is very difficult - especially if there are lots of people around. It is so easy to get yourself included in the shot - reflected in a mirror, headlight, chrome bumper, or even the high gloss paint. When I go to shoot cars, I try to dress in darker colors that match as closely as I can anticipate the background(s) present. In addition, I try to stay about 4 - 10 feet from the car, and use the camera's zoom lens to bring it close. Finally, I try to look and see if I am visible - if so, I try to move so I blend in with something in the background or to get out of the shot. Sometimes all bets are off and you just have to make do with "being there". This shot is very nicely exposed. Some may nit on the centered composition - I kind-of like it. Nice color (reflected floor) and detail. Good job of minimizing the inclusion of overhead lighting hot spots in the shot.

Lol, he looks a lot more lethal than a 'Tigger'. Nice capture.
