Randy, just as another posted stated but I'll expound a little. The 51% rule applies to the amateur built category. The airplane could change hands 12 times (just any number) but as long as it was built 51% by amateur builders, you can get it inspected under it's current regs. The repairman's certificate does not mention anything about 51%, only that you have appropriate knowledge of the systems and structure of the aircraft to be able to perform it's annual inspections. Somewhat nebulous, but more than easily doable.
