The original Cobras had a ground clearance of 5" under front crossmember and 5 1/2" clearance under rear. What hangs below that is fair game.
I'm in the building process and have been able to keep my Canton T-pan 1/2" above the bottom of my 4" tubing frame rails.
I guess I'll be more concerned about a narrow bump like a car part or rock on the road.
