Opened a few boxes that have been sealed for many years and pulled out some old kits, thought maybe someone would want to see.

Many many more boxes to go, Should have all the missing parts for these somewhere.

 

Suggestions for cleanup on these?

Most of those should clean up nicely, especially if you have all the parts.

I've been having a lot of fun lately taking old builds like this--mine, or bought cheaply on eBay or the local monthly toy show--and cleaning them up, fixing them up, and improving them a little. You'd be surprised how good one of these old crocks can look if you wrestle it to the ground with a little 2017 Model-Fu.

Warm Soapy water and a soft toothbrush

Yup. And a Silver Sharpie will make quick work of the window frames and some of the other "chrome" trim.
