I don't think it's leather, but vinyl maybe? I've seen it on early 73s.

Definately leather,I know the differance,will post pic today,the trims show no signs of being recovered thats why I asked if it could be original.
You can also tell by the wear and scuff marks that it's leather.
I purchased a great leather recolour kit for my steering so these will get the same treatment also,cheers.
