I must have come in on the middle of this discussion.  From the subject
matter I have figured out that the 'BC' part must stand for British Cars,
but what does the 'L' stand for??  Most of the things I can think of are
not very complementary.  

My own experience with British cars is limited to a newly refreshed 1953 MG
TD which I 'owned' for about 3 hours in 1960 before my father made me take
it back (the old man is probably spinning in his grave over what that car
would be worth today), and a 1963 Sunbeam Alpine bought new and sold in
1965 when I went off to Vietnam. 

By the way, for lovers of British cars out there who may not have access to
the bay area (ba) newsgroup  - or haven't looked at it recently if you do,
the following ad is currently posted on it. It may be of interest to you.

Note from Phil Ethier:  I forwarded this to british-cars as I figured it was
more appropriate.  I have already sent smclane@wdl1.wdl.loral.com  \
private mail revealing our existance.
