Model shows as wireframe in non-wireframe views in Revit (autodesk.com)

Actually, I think the issue is that the DWG is far, far away from the Internal Origin - well beyond the 10-mile limit.

It looks like the lines were drawn in a plan view, but snapping to things in different Z elevations.

I would wblock out what you need and flatten it, then link it into Revit, current view only in a plan view.

Have you opened it in AutoCAD to see if it looks the same?

Link it in a plan view and tick the box Current view only.

That's what I expected...I mentioned before that I would wblock out just the part that you need, open that file and flatten it, then link or import current view only in your Revit project.

There is no need to flatten the DWG in AutoCAD. Just link it in with Current view only box ticked, or link it in a drafting view then copy paste it to any other view that you want.
