The next thing I want to tackle is the rust.

My plan is to remove all of the electrolytics, chokes and transformers other than the power transformers from the chassis. That should let me derust more easily with Evaporust Gel.
I'll derust the transformers separately - and then repaint them.

Power Transformers
I removed the tops of the power transformers so that they can soak in Evaporust.

Since the weather is warm it shouldn't take too long to derust these.

Chokes and Transformers

Anything removed got bagged up along with hardware and any associated parts and wires that are no longer soldered to anything.

I labeled all of the connection points and components so that I can get it back together again:

Ready for Evaporust

I covered all of the sockets with tape to prevent Evaporust from getting into them. It should be good to go.
