How many naugas were killed for that seat?

My original seat cover was gone in 3 years. I had it redone in kidskin (how many...) then, 1989, at an automotive upholsterer. It's starting to show its age now. I think I'll redo it myself this time and if I can find enough 'coon this winter, I may just do it in coonskin.
