NARRATIVE: PILOT WAS PREOCCUPIED WITH TRAFFIC AND USED THE GEAR HANDLE TO SELECT FLAPS UP AFTER LANDING. MINOR DAMAGE TO AIRCRAFT INCLUDING LEFT TRUNNION FITTING, BELLY SKIN, AND TWO ANTENNAS.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
