If you can't find any, you may want to try to find a local fab shop to make you up a set.
I had a local shop make some full patch panels behind the wheels for my Montego GT. I drew up a sketch (top, side, and end view along with measurements and the guy made them for me
I would think the rockers would even be easier to make than those panels I had made up. there was all kinds of sharp angles on those at the very bottom

thanx,I actually purcased 2 bent sections from a member in ohio they used sections to patch and the car looks beautiful,no more rust down there,it looks brand new,but the car is running real rough right now,i don't know if that's because of the cold weather but that will be the next problem in spring.Had a new radiator installed last month could be part of the problem?????
