Brand Data

Company Name: British Motor Car Co.

Place: San Francisco, California

Country: United States

The British Motor Car Company (BMC) was established around 1952 in San Francisco, California. It was an early venture of Kjell Qvale, who later became known for his role as a principal importer of English cars to the United States and for owning the Jensen brand.

BMC produced vehicles that featured a unique combination of components. The cars utilized a fibreglass body manufactured by GLASSPAR, which was mounted on an English Singer chassis. Powering these vehicles was a Singer 1500cc engine, which was enhanced with twin Solex carburettors, contributing to the car's performance.

Although BMC had a brief existence, it played a role in the early post-war automotive landscape in the United States, reflecting the growing interest in European car designs during that era.
