No Nick, you wont have a NOS black Kashi under a battered leather one... as you can hear sometimes

There's some padding foam under the "leather" which is of course glued.
When you manage to get a small part of the foam off, the surface of the seat appears to have been like grinded for more glueing efficiency..
I have an old one here I plan to get re- done.
