That is the way my oak B-80 is as well-the panels fit well and seem to be factory original. Abe Feder

I've seen short springs in the 4 spring motors so you wouldn't get the longer play that you would expect. You would have to replace them with longer springs. Sorry, don't remember the lengths. The short, weak springs in mine won't even play a worn record through without stopping. Yet I can get 4 to 5 plays on good records. Get out the stethoscope (or long screwdriver) to find the scraping sound. Could be an improperly assembled barrel.
