I must confess.....

I bought a wreck many years ago where the wooden fuselage had been snapped as the gear was removed without any delicacy by a hay bale during a forced landing. The fuselage entered the garage on a trailer and was rebuilt. When it came time to wheel the rebuilt fuselage out through the door of the garage...Doh!
It was easier to remove the door and the concrete lintel than to remove the undercart or overhead fuel tank.
