I agree with Bruce (original message below) about providing no information about any purchases. I have read the actual Texas Comptroller letter to one RV-4 Builder and The first sentence of such letter states:
"The Federal Aviation Administration's records reflect that you purchased and registered the above referenced aircraft."
If I receive such a letter I will respond with a letter that says:
"I received the enclosed letter and wish to inform you that I DID NOT purchase the aircraft you inquired about. I BUILT such aircraft and that is why it has as the type aircraft my name on such registration.
While I did buy the RV-4 plans and some parts from Van's Aircraft, that was done back in ____ when I started building such airplane.
I have reviewed the Tax Publication you sent to me and have consulted my attorney and do not believe that I owe either sales or use taxes on the airplane that I built."

Original Message from Bruce:
Tax collectors have been know to use heavy handed and unlawful tactics
before. My policy, and I've fought a few battles, is not to provide ANY
information to the enemy. Tell them you're not subject to the tax, put
the
burden of proving you are on them, appeal any ruling up the chain of the
taxing agency all the way to the courts, if necessary.
If we all did this, they would soon tire and find some other complacent
citizen to plunder.
