So with this in mind I found another user that had a bit of an issue with an NCR 4950. And after some comparison I noticed that this is the same board as the ADDS ASCII and that they were just rebadge. Link to that thread below:

Next was to get all off the caps and have a look at the state of the plate..... And that is where all of the work really began. Below is some of pictures of the controller, PCB and rust damage.

I got the PCB a bit cleaner with isopropyl alcohol and a paper towel. Next is to take the plate and remove the rust with a long bath in vinegar. After I painted the plate with Rustoleum and put a matte clear coat for the last 2 layers. After I resoldered all of the switches and started pulling out the sliders to be lubed.(Video of how to do this will be linked later)

I just used Soarer's converter for the hex file on the teensy. Some of the key are a bit weird and might need to be remapped and will be doing that in the future. Otherwise it works fine and this is the hardware pinout for the converter.
