You could buy repos and have them chromed or do yours. I would be supprised if anyone sells them chrome off the shelf.
On a side note, I was raised in Folsom. Moved around age 10. I loved it.

The hinges will need to be taken apart and stripped for the chroming process. My brother in law had this done years ago on his chevy II but when the chromers reassembled the hinges they used bolts instead of the factory style rivets and the hinges were forever sloppy since then. If you're going to have someone do this for you inquire about how the hinges will be put back together. They can be riveted again in a press if you can find some of the shouldered rivets like original. Have a machine shop cut some replacement rivets out of stainless maybe. Bob
