On the Super Sport, the Shimano rear derailleur is a very nice upgrade over the original Schwinn Approved Huret.
You might try rubbing some wet aluminum foil on that crank before giving up on it. (Or just ride the bike; the rust is superficial and harmful only to the bike's otherwise fairly nice aesthetics.)
