Since your plan wasn't to buy a RV, then I would say part it out and/or junk it out. You could probably get your $300 back plus more if you part it out and then junk the rest.
If you want to occupy your time, this is certainly the project for that. Since you mentioned the word investment, I get the feeling that you are hoping to fix it up and make some money out of it. With a rebuild of this magnitude, you most likely will not make much money out of it. You will most likely put more money into than you can sell it for. As others have stated, even completely renovated, it is still at 23+ year old Motorhome.
Put it on Craigslist for $500, be honest about the problems and see if you get any takers.
