There is a term for when the sunlight appears to be "spotted".  My Uncle Kenny introduced me to "dappled sunlight" one day  when my family was visiting him in California many years ago.  

Fast forward to this day, I was immediately drawn to the dappled sunlight as it filtered through the clouds and trees, falling on this Fleetline.  I had so much fun painting this, because the layers of paint colors were so different.  I also liked the cars lined up in the background, and thought that from the angle I took the picture, the composition was pleasing to the eye.  In the background is a GTO that looks like the one I painted in another painting.  It is not the same one, though it looks so.

 

1948 Chevrolet Fleetline Aerosedan Information

The Chevrolet Fleetline is an automobile which was produced by US automaker Chevrolet from 1941 to 1952. From 1946 to 1948 it was a sub-series of the Chevrolet Fleetmaster rather than a series in its own right and from 1949 to 1951 it was a sub-series of both the Chevrolet Special and the Chevrolet Deluxe.[1] In its final year it was offered only as a sub-series of the latter.[1]

The Fleetline was introduced late in the 1941 model year as a 4-door sedan. In 1942 a fastback 2-door "Aerosedan" was also offered. In 1947, the Fleetline made up 71.26% of Chevrolet's sales.[4] The years 1949 through 1952 models, the fastback was the only model offered, and Chevrolet dropped the Fleetline for 1953.[5]Production was indefinitely delayed in 1942 due to World War II, after 110,000 had been made total, though several thousand Chevrolet coupes and sedans were produced during the war years for military staff use. In 1945, production for civilians resumed. The original series was produced through 1948.

A redesigned Fleetline with reduced body contour and integrated rear fenders was offered for the 1949 through 1952 model years.[4] It was referred to as a "fastback" because of its distinct sloping roof which extended through to the trunk lid. The Fleetline during these 1949 to 1950 years also had a lower look than a sedan, with the windshield being one inch shorter in height than a standard sedan. The 1949 to 1951 models were made in both 4-door and 2-door models, with only the lower portion of the doors being interchangeable with a sedan door. The Fleetline series is highly collectable today, with its sleek looks. Many are made into street rods, with the common Chevrolet 350 Small block V8 and the 350 or 400 turbo transmission being used in these vehicles.
