Rust-eze and it too can look as good as Lightning McQueen! I have watched Cars way too many times! LOL
Rustoleum is a great product to use. Try the hammered look Rustoleum to blend in any patches of rust you can't sand down.
I am a retired Letter Carrier.... several of my customers removed the arched top of the brick, making just a brick pillar, with a flat top... then replacing the mailbox with a newer, larger one... and not enclosing the box into the brick... just make sure the height is correct (36-42 inches from the bottom of the box to the ROAD surface) and that the front edge of the box is even with the road edge.

I would try using Flex Seal spray to coat the inside. It comes in several colors and would absolutely seal the inside of the mailbox to further damage.
