What about the rust down in the pits? Should I try to sand that down? I
think I would destroy the metal by not being able to keep it even. Would the
Rust Mort or rust converter be able to stop whats in the pits?
Thanks for the advice.

I would grind down the rusty areas and then treat the metal with some "RUST
MORT" available at the Automotive paint stores.  When the rust is converted
I would wipe the area down with some thinner to remove any residual rust
solution.  Then I would apply some Eastwood Rust Encapsulator.
