this is called a scaler, you cant buy and rent them in electric and air powered versions.
Wear a face mask with eye protection when using.

So far, looking at your rust is mostly cosmetic, and can be chemically treated as well.
Definetly gut the interior, you can get new panels for $125 a set resto.
The rest; at the yard ebay, etc. Treat the mold with bleach and distilled water.
