Thanks Dan,
The 601 in question is a plans project. The builder's approach was to
fabricate the sheet metal parts for the entire project before riveting
any of the sub-assemblies. The fab work is mostly done so it's really
like buying a kit at this point. Based on what I've read I think I'd be
in good shape for the amateur-built classification.
Thanks again for you response!

Bob,
The following is from AC 20-27F, Section 7g:
(3) Buying an Aircraft Built From a Partially Completed Kit. If you buy an aircraft built from a partially completed kit, you should get all fabrication and assembly records, such as receipts for materials, the builder’s log, and aircraft, engine, and propeller logbooks, from the previous owner. You
should add the construction efforts of the previous amateur builders to your builder’s log to show the construction history of the kit. This information may help us to determine that your aircraft is eligible for amateur-built certification.
This AC contains other information regarding the Repairman Certificate. Also, you might want to check AC 65-23A regarding the Repairman Certificate. Hope this helps.
Best Regards,
Dan Ginty
