You might pull the distributor cap (leave the wires on) and look at the inside for moisture between the terminals.

Could be just about anything associated to the engine or its mountings. This may take some detective work. I agree with Kansasboy, first make sure the engine is not missing or running roughly.

EZ things first. Since u indicate a vibration near rear of drive traaine i would check the u-joints for wear or loose. Also inspect tyres closely especialy if running anykind of reproduction tyre or el-cheapo modern production tire that is more than 1/2 worn.

I would agree with PackardV8, check the u joints. Also if you were to take it out for a spin and upon deceleration does the vibration get better, worse, or stay the same when you coast in neutral or push the clutch in ? I would start with the simple stuff. Inspect the u joints, mounts, and tires. Once they are checked then move to items like the dampner and such.
Thanks James
