Depends on whether it was only just built, or whether
it has been previously registered and given an airworthiness
certificate. If just completed, you're probably out
of luck; if already FAA-inspected, you should be able
to find the previous owner's identity through the registration
database [by N-number] and work from there. Good luck,

Bought a built experimental powered glider and All
I have is a bill of
sale from an individual who is not the builder and
does not know who
he was. No data plate, plans or other documentation
with kit number.
Is there anyway to satisfy the FAA's chain of ownership
requirements ?
It only needs a sprucing up and some minor repairs
to be flyable.
