The victory at the [[Bathurst 1000]] was in a [[Ford XC Falcon]] [[Group C (Australia)|Group C Touring Car]] manufactured in Australia with limited modifications for racing. After only days practice in a car he had never driven before he was doing lap times the same or quicker than drivers who drove nothing else and who were familiar with the circuit.{{citation needed|date=November 2014}} Ickx visited Bathurst's National Motor Racing Museum in January 2025, where he was reunited with the car he and Moffat had driven to victory some 38 years prior.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.v8sleuth.com.au/were-missing-allan-ickx-reunited-with-bathurst-winning-ford/ |title='We're missing Allan': Ickx reunited with Bathurst-winning Ford |website=v8sleuth.com.au |date=30 January 2025 |first=Will |last=Dale |access-date=30 January 2025}}</ref>

In 1979, in the newly reborn [[Can-Am]] series for rebodied covered wheel [[Formula 5000]] cars, Ickx won against strong opposition from [[Keke Rosberg]], [[Elliot Forbes-Robinson]] and [[Bobby Rahal]]. Formula One fledgling Rosberg drove his Can Am car with ferocity, but often went off the road trying to match the pace of Ickx, who won the series decisively at the season finale at [[Riverside International Raceway|Riverside]].  The previous weekend, on the dangerous and undulating [[Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca|Laguna Seca]] circuit near [[Monterey]], Ickx elected to race conservatively rather than going after leaders Forbes-Robinson and Rosberg, but film of the race indicates the brutal nature of this late generation of Can Am racing. Ickx did not return to defend his title the following season.

One of his other Le Mans victories in a non-driving capacity was when he consulted for the [[Oreca]] team who were running a [[Mazda 787B]] for [[Mazdaspeed]] in [[1991 24 Hours of Le Mans|1991]]. Ickx was also selected to participate in the [[IROC V|1978]] and [[IROC VIII|1984]] editions of the [[International Race of Champions]].

Although he had never driven a [[stock car]] before, Ickx was entered to race in the [[1969 Daytona 500]], in a car owned by [[Junior Johnson]]. A few days before the race, Ickx crashed the car during practice, and although he was not injured, the car was damaged beyond repair. The team's only backup car was needed by eventual race winner [[LeeRoy Yarbrough]], so Ickx did not have the opportunity to race.<ref>{{cite web|last1=Smyle|first1=Don|title=Jacky Ickx: The Forgotten Race|url=http://www.nationalspeedsportnews.com/racing-history/jacky-ickx-the-forgotten-race/2/|website=National Speed Sport News|publisher=Turn 3 Media LLC|access-date=6 November 2014}}</ref>

After he retired from his professional racing career, he continued to compete in the [[Dakar Rally|Paris-Dakar Rally]], even competing with daughter [[Vanina Ickx|Vanina]] in recent years. He won the event in 1983 driving a [[Mercedes-Benz G-Class]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Mercedes-Benz G-Class History|url=http://www.edmunds.com/mercedes-benz/g-class/history.html|work=Edmunds|access-date=7 August 2012}}</ref> Nowadays, he appears in historic events as a driver, such as the [[Goodwood Festival of Speed]] and the [[Monterey Historics]], usually on behalf of [[Porsche]], [[Ferrari]] and [[Genesis Motor|Genesis]]. He still acts as the Clerk of the Course for the [[Monaco Grand Prix]] and is still a resident of [[Brussels]].
