thanks, folks, yes really annoying as there is no pattern yet. As far as I'm aware this engine build has less then a 1000 miles and it had new carb, distributor and coil, maybe more stuff - of course, new stuff on old wiring is not the best and this car looks to have had very few electrics upgrades in general. I'll pull the front cover and take a look at the ignition end of the engine - I've only had the car for 10 days!
