One final wrinkle on this -- which I took no photos of -- is the multivalued cap. These are cans which contain multiple capacitors.
They were very common from the 1940s up until the 1970s. They're sort of like a multi-tap transformer -- there's one cap with the largest value, and the smaller values are derived by sticking a lead into the roll. They had to be custom manufactured. Nobody does this anymore, so you have to replace them with (usually) three or four individual caps.
The can on this one has four caps in it, and eight leads total. Four negative, which tie together and all connect to ground, and four positive.
And on this chassis, they used opposite sides of the can to route the chassis ground. ugh.
