You are mostly wired for air conditioning. My only concern would be if roof bracing is needed or is it already present (visible or not).
I would take the box and have a 20 amp recepticle installed. The one outlet you show is 20 amps but is it wired to the 20 amp circuit breaker labeled "AC" or the 15 amp circuit breaker labeled "110"? I would use a tester or a light to determine which breaker controlled that outlet. I sure hope it's not a 20 amp outlet on a 15 amp breaker...
You will have a number of choices when wiring in the new A/C. You can go to the silver service box and hard wire it in with those wire nuts. You can also turn that service box into a proper 120v 20 amp outlet with box so you can plug and unplug the A/C as needed. I would say this is how most of the A/C units are set up - 20 amp outlets even if they're dedicated/not duplex.
