I'd get it home and make a decision in your own time rather than be rushed.

Go for value less salvage and fix her up

Its up to you but a lot depends on what the market value is and what they have valued the salvage at. From your description of the damage apart from the camper door which might be a bugger to replace its going to be mainly time to sort it all out.
Can you do some of the work yourself or have you got mates who could help you out with it? Chances are the wiring pulled out of the dash is just the back of the ignition dangling down - its an easy fix. However if you end up paying someone to do the work for you it could end up as a fair chunk of money - more in labour than parts I would think.

I'd say the camper door might be fixable with basic DIY skills with a bit of luck.
