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

Victory Auto classic outtakes! THAT OLD CAR'S WORTH MONEY On this day in 1985 WGN's Ron Patris directed the now-classic Victory Auto Wreckers spot in Bensenville. After the original spot from '81 ran so many times it wore out the tape, a new one was required. Listen for Ron, off-screen, giving great direction.
