Does anyone know of a shop that reproduces the old a/c hose assemblies? This must be a replica of the original hose, mufflers and tubes (steel) with chromate. The original assemblies are available as a model. No other materials are acceptable for this "restoration". It must match the original down to the mold lines in the hose--No exception! Price is no object. (or so I'm told.)

I do not believe that any hose manufacturer pulls R12 spec'd hoses. Since there is a visible difference in the two materials, this alone may result in a failure for your request. It may be possible to obtain older R12 AC hose from a shop, but even that seems very remote. Why not contact a large AC shop in your area for a possible solution. Probably the best approach would be to search Hemmings or other trade publication for some NOS hose or possibly a NOS hose assembly.
Hey,maybe TRB has some old stuff stuck in the back somewhere.
Are the steel lines and mufflers available from the vehicle being restored?

We can rebuild hoses but not to the specifications listed.
