Inside the hangar at Fantasy of Flight museum. This is a 2004 reproduction built by Kim Kovach that was acquired by Kermit Weeks. The original "Ike" was a 1932 racer built by Ben Howard and Gordon Israel, along with a similar aircraft called "Mike." The racers were flown in a number of races in the 1930s, with "Ike" flown by Howard finishing with two firsts and a second in the 1932 National Air Races. In 1935 the aircraft was renamed "Miss Chevrolet" for the 1935 National Air Races. Its fuel system was modified to win the world's fastest inverted speed record.
