When using the wire brushes, use the brass cup type in an angle grinder, far more effective than a drill. You must wear goggles as some of the strands come loose.
The brass type doesn't damage the metal and can also be used as a rapid way of removing paint as well as rust.
Before painting the parts I would suggest brushing on rust converter, this kills the rust, then wash it off and paint. Loads on eBay including some in aerosols so you can convert rust that you can't get too, not ideal but better than nothing.
Last picture, is that one of those Black & Decker anal probes?
