Car dies

Ok, after several years of use, my car now dies whenever it feels like it. I can be driving and it will drive fine and then all of a sudden, it just dies. It will not restart right away. But, give it a few minutes and then it fires right up and I can go on my merry way, until it decides to die once again.
I have a Ford Duraspartk distributor, and everything else is MSD, including, 6AL box, Blaster coil, Tach adaptor, and noise reducer. Yesterday we installed a second ground to the frame to see if that helped - it didn't, it died soon afterwards. Everything is mounted on the right rear side of the car below the radiator tanks. It's not getting any excess heat (we checked) and the outdoor temp is not excessive or any different from other times the car's been driven.
We have 12 plus volts to the 'hot' etc. I can't trust the car to drive anywhere - please help with suggestions ! Of course, we've tested all components to be assured of voltage to all working parts and they seem fine.
I don't want to replace parts needlessly (we've all been there before).
