Question Paint Advice Needed


Im trying to pretty up the old farm truck I just bought and want to start with repainting small portions of the truck to get rid of surface rust. Whats the best way to go about sanding/painting these spots? Should i just use touch up paint cans?

Keep in mind that this is on a high school kids budget! Thanks!
