RE: Mounted on wrecker '62

Bad condenser is a good guess.  Is the eccentric on the distributor 
shaft rough?  If so it will wear down the part of the points that runs 
against it changing the point gap.  That could explain why it happened 
after a bit of a drive.  Not trying to fire at all tends to make me 
think ignition.
