Default Tom Ellison

Tom Ellison of Ellison's Engine Service in Cincinnati, Ohio passed away yesterday after a short battle with cancer. His machine shop built many class engines for Stock, Super Stock, and Modified in the 60's through the 80's. He was 71.

Very sad news, I can remember when i started racing years ago seeing countless of stockers and superstockers with the ELLISON MACHINE logos painted on them. Our thoughts are with his family...

Thoughts and Prays go out to Tom's family. Tom and Mike did a lot of work for my Dad over the years.
