The Ithaca rifle I referred to (the one from 1974), had a little bit more of that "california look" to it than yours--likely because it was made earlier.
if I recall correctly, it had the rosewood angled fore-end tip, pistol grip cap, etc.--the very copied "Weatherby look".
Hi_Vel,
If I'm not mistaken; The rifle you are referring to is a LSA-65
Deluxe .
The
Deluxe had all the features that you refer to.
In 1976, I looked at a Ithaca LSA-65 Deluxe in .25-06. I was enthralled with that rifle. But, alas, the price was on the north side of $400. and I was going thru a divorce at the time.
That was the only
Deluxe I have ever actually held in my sweaty palms.
According to the BBoGV, the LSA-55 & LSA-65
Deluxe , had a Monte Carlo rollover comb, Rosewood P/G cap and F/E tip, and Skip-Line checkering. Also had clean barrel, and scope mounts furnished.

P.S: I would further note that these rifles had the
Wundhummer swell on the pistol grip...
