Not Ranked
Obviously, I concur with Dan's remarks - as I have gained pretty much all of my information from him! CSX2310 and COB6029 are fantastic resources, being (I think) pretty much the closest things to an unrestored Cobra available to us.
From what I've seen on COB6029, not all the leather is skived, some is full thickness - for example that used in the various straps and stays etc. Dash and rear wheelarches certainly are, basically I think anything that had to fit around a complex curve. As Dan has noted, original Cobra leather is not the same as used these days, but has a much 'coarser' crease pattern, and seems to be slightly glossier. I don't like it as much, but as it's not available anyway (or at least not in the UK) that's academic.
