I'm getting ready to clean them up, but I'd appreciate any
recommendations on where I can get parts.

I assume that I'll have to take the Drill Press' motor apart

The Drill Press has a single phase 3/4" horse power motor that I'll
have to take apart, but I'd like to find a simular motor for the
bandsaw.

Going by the pics, can anyone tell me if there are any specific parts
I should be scouting for?

Do the motors run? If so, I wouldn't take them apart. Looking at the
pieces, it looks like your biggest problem is rust that is going to need to
be cleaned up.
