Ok, got quite a bit done...First off, yesterday morning I went out and bought a rock tumbler. Supposedly this will help remove rust and polish all of the metal pieces that I have. It uses ground walnut shells and a high vibration to clean the metal. I put the first batch of pieces in yesterday, and I'm going to let them run for 24-36 hours. Then after that, I'm going to put all the playfield springs in for probably about 12 hours.
Also, I'm finally putting the cabinet back together. The legs are finished, and the first batch of parts is clean. Look how shiny the leg bolts are! And lastly for this update...I cleaned off the woodrails for the sides. Wow did that make a difference. I didn't realize how dirty they actually were until I cleaned them up. Again, I used a magic eraser and Novus #1, but this time I also gave them a little wood polish afterwords.
