My first guess would be the coil's going bad. Check the spark before and during the problem.
Much less likely, but possible, would be a bad vent in the gas cap - but so easy to check that it's worth doing. Just remove it hen you're having the problem.
When the problem's happening - I'd play with the choke - half choke it, see if that makes a difference. If it does, you know you've probably got some fuel blockage problems in the carb. But that would be a coicedental problem since it doesn't really fit what you described. But again - a free, simple test.
I'd adjust the valves. a little less simple to do, but still free.
If the points/condensor's old, just swap them all out for the fun of it. But now you're spending money.
