So far as the capacitor with the winding, you can either leave the existing coil there, and put the new cap inside the cardboard tube that remains after you gut out the old capacitor, or make a new coil with a few turns of wire in the same fashion over the new smaller component. In practice it doesn't make a lot of difference. I know that some people just replace the cap, forget about the winding, and the radio plays just fine.
