Not sure what kind of car it is, but I'm sure it's older than I am :p
I would like to hear some feedback on the shot & pp'n:

It's a decent job of Sepia Toning, but the subject is far too young for Sepia, which has not been in vogue for 60 years.

taillight looks like a impala, plus i'm pretty sure its got a deer on the tail section.
I like it.

It's an Impala alright. Maybe '63-'64? I used to know every car from 80 on back but I don't care as much about cars as I used to.
I'd be looking in the trunk for a body in this one though. THere's something ominous about this photo.

I like the sepia, as it has always been a major option with B&W. It hasn't been as popular since color film, but has always been an option when printing B&W. Thankfully, since the advent of the computer age, it is a lot easier to apply.
For this picture, I'd like to see more of the car in focus. Your DOF ends right around the midpoint of the car, and the front half is out of focus. The change between in focus and OOF is kind of abrupt here.
