There are high temp paints you can use on the inside, but if the metal isn't prepped properly (exceptionally clean and free of all oils and greases) they won't adhere properly, so if you go that route, you will probably be in for a bit of work unless you have a sandblaster and a case of spray brake cleaner handy.

Me, I wouldn't even worry about the inside of the firebox. For the cook chamber, I'd just clean the excess rust off by hand with a brass wire brush as not to destroy any existing coatings, then get a can of spray oil (like PAM), spray it down and start a fire in the firebox, and cook something.
