Bought this camper a few weeks ago for $3,500, needed some serious updating and a little fixing up, some people may think we paid too much but it is what we wanted, low priced ones are hard to come by. Here are a few photo's of some of the mods we have done. Removed the oversized dinette and replaced with a table, we sliced in just over half, laid new vinyl flooring, new window treatments, painted kitchen and bath room countertops, recovered sofa and dinette chairs, new max air vent covers. So far we have spent just over $300. Going to do a complete reseal of the entire roof the middle of August, then the whole camper will be the way we want it. Hopefully this one we will keep longer than any other we have had, one being 1 week and the longest being 1 year, lol.

update: OK, finally found out how to resize on a MAC, thank you.

Nice work. What a difference between before and after.

I went ahead and fixed your links. I can't help with a Mac image resizer, but maybe someone else will jump in. Meanwhile, a Google search turns up a number of options.
 
Holy Cow- talk about an extreme makeover. Like Gary said- hope the exterior looks good. Good job!
 
thank you everyone for the nice comments, can't help but show off our hard work. going camping at north beach in st augustine this weekend, hope the storm stays away.
 
Ohhhhhh, that looks so great.  Warm and comforting.  I never thought of buying a table and cutting one side off.  Simple solution giving you designer results.  Great choice of fabric too.

What did you use to 'paint' the kitchen and bathroom counter tops?

A paint from Home depot made by  Rustoleum, specially made for laminate countertops, it didn't come quite as smooth as it says it does, looks a bit like a stoney type finish, it looks fine though, and we like it. Hey it's a camper, right?  :)
They have a bunch of colors.  They also make one for cabinets, maybe contemplate doing them in the winter, too darn hot at the moment.
 
update on the renovations:
Was an empty closet in the bathroom with no door, where an electric water heater had been installed. Hubby did a great job.

OK, thinking of painting the interior walls in about a month, looking for color ideas, want to keep it light, maybe two contrasting colors, any ideas would be great.
Got some left over white plastic coated paneling that we used in the bathroom closet area, we are going to change the panels on the refrigerator doors this weekend.
Got the RV back from the repair shop today, had the whole roof and vents resealed, would have done it ourselves but here in Florida we would have roasted up on top of the roof. They did a great job.
