An endangered and almost lost species - CHROME! The shiny styling sensation!

CHROME! The shiny styling sensation!
I know, right? There's really no place for it now on new vehicles, a few pieces here & there on the inside AND the outside but boy, how I miss it!

... I vividly remember traffic on sunny days just packed with "chrome cars!" Without sunglasses, you were screwed! 😬 🙄 😬

Chrome won't get you home but it sure looks good on the side of the road. Seriously I love chrome on cars but the cost to having something chrome plated today is out of sight. My 63 T-Bird and 55 Imperial have hundreds of pounds of chrome on them which I couldn't afford today if they hadn't been done years ago.
