1) How much would you average a new paint job?
2) I'll probably want to re-carpet and reupholster the interior just because I'm picky. Where can I get that done and any estimated costs for that?

So this is what I get out of what you are saying. He wants 8,000 FIRM he will not let you drive it and that you are picky about the cosmetics.
Respectuflly - at $8,000 you can't really be TOO picky especially about cosmetics. If I were going to be picky it would be A LOT more about the structural integrity of the coach and the condition of the tires, brakes, engine etc. The last of my concerns would be spending an enormous amount of time and money to have it repainted or to have the fabrics redone. Especially since I would not likely recoup any of that money spent. Just imagine it being flushed down the toilet if you were ever to decide to sell the coach. If you really want to be picky then be picky on something newer that doesn't need a paint job or new fabrics. IMO of course.
Best of luck to you!
