Those tarnish/ rust can be made shiny by Brasso. I suggest you change the tuners, input jacks, pickup selector etc. Too rusty ;) and after all these years, I guess they might not be functioning well. As for the poles on the pickups, you can use a sandpaper to sand away the rust.

As for the frets, you can use this

thanks ryanz. do i need some lemon oil that kinda stuff? i research on the net. ppl kept mentioning the DUNLOP stuff.
 
Aha. i can help to revive your guitar.. remove the rusts especially.and i can polish the frets to UBER SHINY!
 
Hi, lemon oil is for conditioning the fretboard but make sure your fretboard is rosewood, not maple. Do it yourself. You will have a great sense of satisfaction after revivng your guitars ;)
