It's really not that different from rewinding the osc coils on older Philcos, just a bit smaller with more taps on the primary. You have to rewind the entire coil as the primary wire also has the green corrosion. But it is still just a single layer on each of the windings. Very doable.
Russ, I would agree with you. There were a lot of spots where the corrosion was evident. As you said, if it's ok now, it won't be for long.
