The wing spar was used to make a glider and the remainder was sold to Mr. Bubner of Port Wakefield, SA. By 1967 all that could be located at Bubner's farm was a set of cowlings. This was the first Oxford towed out of RAAF Mallala after the Auction. Significant road traffic problems were caused by the Mallala sales aircraft being towed, with their wheelbase barely fitting on the main roads of the time, forcing all other vehicles off the road. Police escorts were required from Gepps Crossing for those aircraft being towed through the Adelaide suburbs.
