Default Electrical Help White Family Series 77

I have a 1950s Family Rotary Series 77 in a cabinet with a knee pedal (which I love, having learned on this same model in 1959). The machine needs to be rewired due to cracked and dangerous wires wrapped and rewrapped with electrical tape. I got the new electrical plug that attached to the machine in a casing next to the foot pedal. There are rivets holding it shut, which i was told to drill out (in another forum that I cannot find). I did this, and the wires end in solders attached to metal clips, not the screws i was expecting due to the u-shapped wire ends on the new wire . Can these be soldered? Should i cut the ends off? These are different than the other machines I have rewired. Thanks in advance, I am a total novice, except where things are straight forward and does not include solder.
