What's the concenses on attempting to stay legal in 2 seat ultralights? I'm a CFI with ultralight time, but never a two place.
Register it as a ELSA? Can a CFI still get an exemption?
Found one for sale locally, but need to be legal

NO....It must be factory built.
We need Two seat Ultralight training back for safety.

You can remove one seat and if it otherwise complies with Part 103, fly it as an ultralight. Another option is experimental-exhibition.
What if I don't want to give training, just be able to fly it with a passenger?
Its currently apart, can't I try to get a airworthiness certificate via the EAB route?
The 2-place ultralight training exemption ended in 2008. Now all 2-seaters must be registered with an N-number and have an airworthiness certificate. Does the Quicksilver you are looking at have an N-number and airworthiness certificate?
FAR 91.319(h) allows the use of an experimental aircraft for compensated flight training by obtaining a letter of deviation authority (LODA). The FAA policy to issue LODAs is rather restrictive and can be difficult to understand. Call me at EAA HQ if you would like to discuss it, 920-426-6831.
Have Fun & Fly Safe!

No N number currently. I'm not opposed to registering it as a EAB as it is in many pieces currently.
I guess that's up the the DAR right? I only need to prove I put 51% of it together
