THAT OLD CAR'S WORTH MONEY... It's a Chicago classic...the Victory Auto Wreckers commercial. 33 years ago this week, WGN undertook shooting this very spot, on a Bensenville side street, after the original spot from 1981 was run so many times it wore out the tape. In this raw, unedited clip, listen carefully as you can hear the off-screen director giving some really good direction to "actor" Bob Zajdel. The door scene only took two takes. | WGN TV
