I was in the aluminium industry for a couple of decades. It is good that you riveted it together. Seen a lot of broken welds. If you bolt use Nyloc nuts.
On one hand windows on the side would be nice but if it looks like a working truck it grabs less attention.
If you need to quieten the inside acoustic insulation helps.
Silicone & acrylic bonds are 1 day to dry per 1mm thickness of bonding material. So for instance flush windows in high rise buildings require a month to cure due to the thickness.

Is there enough depth for a 2.5kW split system air conditioner behind the roller shutter. As you pointed out they are very efficient, also as you have so much insulation it won't need to run at full capacity. You can also collect the water from it.

Agree with drawing up in 3d. I do (retired) 3d architectural models. Just for basic dimensional purposes it won't take too long to learn. You can then check for clearances & how everything fits together. Put different parts in different layers to see how everything fits together. Work out volume of things or mass. Every minute spent on your set of plans will save ten fold avoiding costly & time consuming stuffups. If you don't want to do 3d at least do a proper set of plans, including elevations & sections.

There is about 360mm of depth so I could probably fit one there but my preference would be to put it under the truck where the current Evap is. My philosophy is to put such utilities out of sight in the least accessible spots, also I will probably upgrade my water heater to something that won't fit under the truck like my current one and the only spot for it is behind the roller door. I may also put a bike there at some stage.
Your comment about quality of products. I have found that on the whole if you need something done properly you need to build it yourself. Pretty much everything on the market is rubbish.
Most products out there should simply driven over. Sadly most people put up with it. You either have to build the entire product or adapt (vastly improve) an existing product.
Even down to the basic product. You should be ok with the aluminium extrusions you have used in your design, but when I was in the industry increasing amounts were imported which never met Australian standards or for that matter ISO standards. It's more than likely worse today.
Do you have a ladder of some description to get through the skylight to clean the solar panels. Also fire extinguishers (plural), give then a bash once a month to free up powder settling, & smoke & CO2 detector.
The roller shutter is interesting. In Germany they use these type of vented roller shutters on windows & are quite handy to partially lift various percentages depending how much ventilation you require.
To save weight did you use aircraft honeycomb flooring which is light but expensive or just use plywood.

The roller shutter was an observation as I have quite a few relatives & friends in Germany, everyone has roller shutters on all windows as another barrier with their triple glassed thermal break windows, unlike Australia.
Due to their very long summer daylight (I've been there many times), they use them to totally block out sunlight in summer to get sleep, or maybe just 1 or 2 rows open for a touch of ventilation.
