About the Car:

The 1984 Le Mans 24 Hours was a defining moment for privateer teams. Due to a dispute over fuel consumption regulations, the Porsche factory team officially boycotted the race, leaving the grid wide open for fiercely competitive privateers driving the legendary Porsche 956. Among them was the British-based Charles Ivey Racing outfit, fielding the No.21 car adorned in the unforgettable, sun-kissed Hawaiian Tropic livery.

Piloted by the iconic Alain de Cadenet alongside Chris Craft and Allan Grice, the No.21 was a fan favorite from the moment it hit the Circuit de la Sarthe. Although their race ended prematurely on Sunday morning due to engine failure after completing 274 laps, the car’s blistering pace and stunning visual presence cemented its legacy in Group C folklore. This chassis represents an era where independent teams possessed the sheer ambition—and the machinery—to take the fight to the pinnacle of international endurance racing.
