Can anyone tell me what the stock ground clearance on a '69 Beetle is?

I am hoping to get one, but how high/low to the ground it is.

Thanks.

according to my 69 owners manual the stock ground clearance is 5 1/2 inches.

150mm to be exact - measured under the floor pan. And the door sill should be level with the car on level ground - in other words the 1500 clearance is even under the pan.
