you won't need the trajectory file to restart. later you can use ptraj
to combine your mdcrd files from the original run and the restarted one.
your input file is already set up for restarting so it looks OK.
just make a new sander script where you change the input and output names.
use the old restart file name as the new input coordinate file.
I would use something like this (but you might do it differently):
SANDER -O -i md2.in -o md2.out -p ph.parm -c eq_long.rst -r md2.rst -x md2.crd

  Dear amber users,
  I would like to run a MD simulation for few nanoseconds. But I don't know how to restart with the restrt (eq_long.rst) and mdcrd (eq_long.crd) files which are results of the previous MD simulation. Could somebody help me please? Thank you in advance.

  This is md.in file:
  -----------
  &cntrl
   imin=0,
   irest=1, ntx=7,
   iwrap=1,
   ntf=2, ntb=2,
   nstlim=1000000, dt=0.001,
   ntt=1, temp0=313.0, tautp=1.0,
   ntp=1, pres0=1.0, taup=1.2,
   ntc=2,
   ntpr=100, ntwx=2000, ntwr=1000,
  &end

  And sander command:
  ----------
  SANDER -O -i md.in -o eq_long.out -p ph.parm -c heat.rst -r eq_long.rst -x eq_long.crd
