Bell Housing to road clearnace

I'm still searching for my first buy. As I've searched, I've run into two Cobras I that I was ready to pick up except for concern on the clearance from the road to the bellhousing & oil pan. Both parts stuck well below the frame & were between 2 1/2" to 3" of clearance? Hear is a picture of the last, which already had some road rush on the bottom of the bell housing and a slight bend.

First, what is a safe clearance? The car I buy will be driven & I do not want to be concerned every time I take it out.

Second, what kind of fixes are there besides raising the front coil overs some & changing out the engine/trans?

And as always, any additional comments/suggestions would be welcome.

Eric
