Windmill was translated in CantoDict as 風車 (fung1 ce1) and 風櫃 (fung1 gwai6). The translations seem a bit odd to me because 車 is a car and 櫃 is a cabinet. Can the editors confirm that these two translations are correct? Thanks.

風車 is correct. The blades on a windmill move like a cart's wheel.
However, I'd never heard of 風櫃.
