After 22 years in a GM dealership, I'm comfortable with the miles. GM really worked those 350s. We had more than a few customers with one-ton duallies and a poor old 350 under the hood.
If I could swing it, I'd swap a 5.3 or 6.0 in when the 350 dies.

I did see the pictures in the link. Its a nice class b, but it needs some serious cleaning inside and out.
Once you get it all cleaned up, post up some new pictures. I`m sure it will be quite an improvement.

Update? Mechanicals? Cleaned up? Window seals?
Good find!

The original Fiamma awning still functions. It's filthy but in good shape. I found a rat's nest of wires under the driver seat along with a mystery electrical box. Followed the wires to the back and they went to a cd player that had been added. Tore the cd player out and the wiring between it and the box. Today I'll tackle the power side of the box. Numerous inline fuses and toggle switches wrapped in electrical tape.
Finally have some dry weather so I'll check out the upper window seals today. They weren't leaking during the daylong drizzle Wednesday but there is evidence they had in the past. And obvious attempts at sealing them up.
I'll try to get some pics posted later today.

Haven't found one. Not in the electrical center. But I probably haven't found all the hidey holes in this thing yet. Could the panels be installed without a controller?

They could be installed any way someone decided to do it !
Try following the wires down from the panels and see where they "lead" you.....
stay tuned

rigid frame panels? those poly panels have a bad window tint look to them,if they are old giant 30 watts not much use anymore but if they are 100 watts could be a nice bonus,multimeter in the connections will get you a reading
