As I was reading your post I immediately felt the car needed to be sandblasted again. Primer is very porous and allows water to go through it. Now you have the metal rusting under the primer. The primer will soon start coming off and if you paint over it it will take off the new paint with it. Had it been primed with an epoxy primer there may have been a chance of salvaging the paint job but rust wouldn't be coming through epoxy primer. Really if you do choose to start over I would recommend using an epoxy primer. Once metal starts rusting it's difficult to stop and epoxy will really help putting an end to rust. Even on a car with any other primer if you get a scratch down to the metal the rust will spread outwards from the scratch under the paint until you have a much larger spot. With epoxy primer if you get a scratch down to the metal the rust will be kept isolated to the scratch.
