Your symptoms are not unlike those I experienced when one of the two ignition coils was beginning to fail. Not that there aren't other possibilities as well, including the power feed wire to the coils beginning to short out inside the metal conduit from the ignition switch. But simple enough to evaluate your coils, get a universal 6-volt coil from NAPA or elsewhere and, one at a time, temporarily substitute it for one of the original coils and go for a drive.
