[1934]

I never considered timing as the culprit because the car runs well- never stalls or hesitates, lots of power, idles well and never over-heats. I'm thinking it might be the condenser. After doing a little research I realize that NOS ones can likely be defective due to age. In the morning I'll drive it around for a while, shut it off and then try cranking it over with the ignition off, (as suggested by rotorwrench).
Once again, many thanks.
