I'm looking at an '08 Big Hit 3 with an upgraded fork (Marzocchi 66 VF). How much is the bike worth? Is this a good choice for light DH and freeride?

Looks like the brakes & cassette/drivetrain were changed.
Ad:
Fox DHX 4.0 shock. Specialized bars, Race Facce stem. Lock on grips. Marzocchi 66 VF fork, new Transition Revolution 36 wheels. Hayes brakes. Shimano drive train, 8 speed. Chris King headset, Thompson post. WTB seat, Truvative cranks, Specialized chainguide

I think you would be fine with that set up. But if you get more into the downhill side of things you will probably want a dual crown up front. But if your just looking for a bike to do light DH and FR i think you covered.

Did the Marzocchi 66 VF fork ever come in black & white?

So it sounds like its a complete bike...

Is the frame in good condition?

1300 isn't bad. I might offer him 1200 or 1250

That bike actually was spec'd with a 888 and MSRP was $2900. With a new wheelset $1300 ain't bad. If the bike is overall in good condition than the price sounds fair. See if he'd cover shipping too (for a complete bike, shipping can run about $100, unless he can get it discounted through an employer).
