The old colors are very bright and bold, so a coat of primer, such as Kilz or Bullseye, on the baseboards is in order first.What would be a fair price for what would basically be a full day's work for one person?

@Robert Conroy Those basement systems when I looked into them were almost the same price as a local basement remodeler without the ability to easily make changes in the future(which doesn't matter as much to you I realize).Personally unless it is a really bad DIY job or your target price range is high I would paint the paneling a light beige color to brighten it up put down some new carpet from Home Depot without padding (~$0.69/sq ft + $150 install from a local installer from my last basement job) and call it good.
