If you have wanted to basically build your own RV from scratch, this would be something like a kit with many of the parts required. In terms of money spent vs. what the result would be worth at sale, it's almost certainly a losing proposition; but if it's a project you want to do for the sake of the project, or if you have some particular needs or wants that are not available in normal motorhomes, it might be a starting point (though there would probably be better ones).
In general, though, I recommend cutting your losses and moving on. Given what you paid, you stand a decently good chance of not doing to badly parting out the systems, assuming they're in working condition. You might also be able to sell it as is for about what you paid, at least in some parts of the country. Around here, even a pretty decrepit $300 RV may well get a taker for a deer hunting camp or similar.
