Speedster 1/2 oval steel body trim

Hi All,

Looking at trim options for speedsters.
In the Orange field at Hershey were two 1922 Mercers. On the semi restored Mercer was a 1/2 oval steel trim riveted along the edge of the cowl. Looks like brass or copper rivets. See photos. This was typical for a 1920's era car and used on one of my original speedster bodies.
I anyone aware where to get this type of trim?

thanks

Pretty sure it is referred to as 1/8 Oval.
