Looks like a low spot your sander isn’t reaching. Try sanding it by hand or use one of those cup sanders.

@JimKueneman is this your new user name so we don’t know you’re restoring another car and it’s not a Mopar? :D
 
simple answer, yes, filler between epoxy layers is the norm now days. you want the bare metal protected. find a way to get the rust off though.
 
Between the pin holes and pop rivet's and a few little rust specks, epoxy it and slap some bondo on it and keep restoring.
