Thanks again
I assume this is for your 65. You won't find any aftermarket trim. I don't know that car specificly but its possible its not chrome but instead polished stainless or a combo of plated potmetal and stainless. My bes suggestion is go to car shows in you area and look a as many cars as you can. When you see trim thats nice enough to satisfy you then start asking owners where they had it done. Really nice chrome and polish work can get real expensive really fast since its so labor intensive.
