Re: chrome strips
How about '35 or '36 hood strips. Might have to cut and splice to get the lengths you need; but stainless is easy to modify and polish.
Stainless half round stock is another option. Milling the top flat would give it a more pleasing shape. |

Re: chrome strips
McMaster-Carr has both stainless steel and aluminum that can be polished to look like chrome. They come in just about any size you could want.

Re: chrome strips
On our '41, we used left over stainless from the body to put between the door carpet and upholstery so it all matched.
