This is how the American AA-1 family is built; the FAA does not record construction for each aircraft, and the type certificate data sheet is the authority for this one.

The public federal record on N3LC, read the way a buyer, lender or insurer reads it: FAA registration, prior tail numbers keyed on the serial number, reuse of the tail number, recent registry filings, and the NTSB accident record under this and every earlier registration.
Valid registration to Stimson Andrew J, an individual, certificate issued April 23, 2020, expires April 30, 2030. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Standard certificate for normal; utility, dated August 13, 1970, consistent with the 1970 manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial AA1-0401 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N3LC was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Beech B-60 (serial P-389, cancelled June 30, 2015). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
No bills of sale, loans or releases have reached the registry in recent weeks. The index covers only recent filings; older liens are in the records file. [3]
No NTSB investigation records located under N3LC. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
These live in the FAA aircraft records file (every document ever filed against the aircraft) and, for larger aircraft, the International Registry. Part of the full report.
AD compliance against the logbooks and flight-activity reconciliation are researched layers of the full report.
