Congrats on your first Lefever. I'd say you did really quite well. You don't see too many English grip Lefevers especially with pretty Damascus 32" barrels.
What is the LOP of this gun to the edge of the wood? On my computer it looks like the curve is still present at the end of the stock and someone added a pad and spacers to lengthen it. You might be able to put a repro LAC monogram butt plate on if the LOP is good enough for you.

Early Lefevers with original pads were usually installed on the curve, difficult as it is to do. However, it looks like this pad was installed with a hatchet and a belt sander. A wood refinish is probably in your future. What a great gun.
