Since your father has been fighting the case from 1998 onward and ther is no mention about the stage or status of the case, without knowing anything about the case any opinion given in this regards may be a misguidance however since you say that the builder has transferred the property to his name, you may implead the builder as a necessary party to the suit to seek the relief of cancellation of his sale deed.

If the builder was not impleaded in the original suit earlier then you may implead him at least now but you may not be able to seek cancellation of the sale deed in his favor as the same is barred by limitation.

you will have to make an application for amending the plaint of your father for including the builder as a defendant party and also for making amendments containing averments against the builder and other consequential amendments

Yes he can file the case against builder and son of the owner in court for cancellation of subsequent sale by previous owner. 

Second sale will become null and void if your father proves that the land was sold to him in 1998.
